Malaysian police said Sunday that they have identified four more North Koreans as suspects at large in the recent killing of Kim Jong-nam, a half-brother of the North's leader Kim Jong-un.
Kim Jong-nam, the eldest son of late North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, who has a different mother from the current leader, was killed in an airport in Malaysia on Monday after being attacked by two women who are suspected to have used some sort of poison.
On Friday, the Malaysian police arrested a North Korean man in connection with the killing.
Ri Jong-chol, 47, was arrested at 9:50 p.m. Friday night in Selangor state, and became the fourth suspect arrested in connection to the murder of Kim Jong-nam.
Ri was in possession of an "i-Kad" card, a identification card issued by the Malaysian government to registered foreign workers. (Yonhap)
