Kim Jong Nam Remains to be held under Health Ministry Custody

Mar 13, 2017

Kim Jong-nam's remains will remain under the custody of the Health Ministry until the next-of-kin's DNA is established.

According to The Sun, a Health Ministry spokesperson says the body will only be released at the discretion of the minister.

Last week, the IGP confirmed the North Korean man murdered at KLIA 2 last month was indeed Kim Jong Nam, but declined to revealed how he was identified.

Meanwhile, the DPM says M'sia does not need a 3rd country to come in and resolve its spat with North Korea, as KL is trying to maintain diplomatic ties with Pyongyang. 

Seperately, a video of a bomoh performing a ritual, allegedly to protect the country from harm especially from North Korea, has gone viral on social media.
