Is this the woman who killed Kim Jong Un’s half-brother?

Kim Jong Nam fell ill and died en route to the hospital

Newsroom February 15 01:38

The Malaysian authorities have under custody a woman accused of the murder of North Korean leader’s Kim Jong Un’s half-brother, Kim Jong Nam.
According to the Malaysian news agency Bernama, the woman was arrested in the international airport of Kuala Lumpur. She was alone at the time of her arrest and she had a Vietnamese passport with her.
South Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS) said Kim Jong Nam has been under a “kill order” since his half-brother took power in 2011, according to opposition politician Kim Byung Kee.
