Kim Jong-un's half-brother Kim Jong-nam killed after being 'sprayed in face with unknown liquid' possibly by pair of female spies.
'A police manhunt was underway in Malaysia on Tuesday night after the half-brother of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un was assassinated at an airport having apparently been attacked with a chemical spray.
Unnamed South Korean government officials had earlier stated that two female North Korean agents stabbed Kim Jong-nam with a "poisoned needle". According to the reports, the attackers then fled the airport by taxi and remain at large.
Mr Kim, who had frequently spoken out against his brother's dictatorship, said he was in "extreme pain" having been sprayed in the face with an unidentified liquid as he waited to board a flight in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian police said.
It is believed that Kim Jong-un, who is Mr Kim's younger half-brother and the current Supreme Leader of North Korea, had the playboy killed as he feared he might attempt to overthrow him.
Mr Kim collapsed on Monday morning while waiting to board a flight from Kuala Lumpur back to Macau, where he was living in exlie...' SOURCE:

Too bad it wasn't Little Kim.
I don't know if he put the order out or not, but according to one article I read earlier today,Kim Jong-Nam said he had no desire to take his brother's place. Little Kim must be getting nervous about something.

'...CCTV images show a suspected female assassin who is believed to have murdered North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un's half-brother.
Kim Jong-Nam, 45, was reportedly assassinated by two Pyongyang agents at Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia on Monday as he waited to catch a flight to Macau.
The women are believed to have used poisoned needles, a poisoned spray or a poison-laced cloth. Malaysian and South Korean media broadcast footage of a woman wanted in connection with the killing...' SOURCE:

So what do you think this is all about, Daitengu?
Kim Jong-Nam's body targeted in attempted morgue break-in.
'Security is increased following the attempted break in, as a senior official in the North Korean embassy is named as a suspect.
(CCTV allegedly showing the moment Kim Jong-Nam is attacked)
Security has been increased following an attempted break-in at the mortuary where Kim Jong-Nam's body is being held.
Police have confirmed the hospital building was targeted last week in an attempt to get to the corpse, which has been undergoing a post-mortem examination.
Malaysian police chief Khalid Abu Bakar told the Malay Mail that they have now had to "take precautions", and "will not allow anyone to tamper with the mortuary". Kim Jong-Nam's cause of death is still unknown, and further tests are under way.
Meanwhile, Malaysian police have identified a senior official in the North Korean embassy as a suspect in the murder...' SOURCE:

VX is the deadliest nerve agent ever created and just a tiny drop absorbed through the skin is enough to cause “fatal disruption of the nervous system”, making it 100 times more deadly than sarin gas

Deadly cloud in the aptly named Skull Valley
'March 13, 1968. Workers at the Dugway Proving Grounds performed three tests involving VX, a deadly nerve agent with an oily consistency.
A drop on the skin the size of a pinhead can kill a full grown adult in 15 minutes.
The first test involved firing a single VX laden artillery shell. The second involved burning 160 gallons of the nerve agent in an open pit. It is the third test, however, that has gone on to become infamous.
This test involved a low-flying F-4E Phantom jet dumping VX on an empty test area 27 miles from Skull Valley. The jet performed its mission, but something went wrong with the spraying apparatus used in the test. It continued to leak the deadly agent as the pilot guided his plane over Skull Valley.
One terrifying feature of VX is how it persists in the environment. Due to its oily consistency, it clings to vegetation and can do so for days. In this case, the VX coated the grass and snow covering Skull Valley.
Sheep living in the valley ate the contaminated grass and snow, and by March 14 some 6000 of them were dead. The Army of course denied responsibility for their deaths, but tests conducted on blood and tissue samples from the carcasses showed traces of VX in their systems.
Tests conducted in 1972 at Edgewood Arsenal showed that sheep fed grass contaminated with VX exhibited the same symptoms as the sheep in Skull Valley...' SOURCE:
I seriously doubt that a 'two-way mixer' was used to put this stuff on Kim Jong-un's face.
I hear a Reporter say that the belief was that one female had the first part of the poison
on her finger and touched him and then another female had the second portion that
activated the poison when she touched the same are of his face.
Oh... and it's said it was done as a prank.
VX... found in any Joke Shop.

Update On The Alleged 'Prank':
Quote:Kim Jong Nam 'had nerve agent antidote in bag'
'The half-brother of Kim Jong Un carried a dozen vials of atropine, an antidote for poisons such as the VX that killed him.
Kim Jong Nam had a nerve agent antidote in his bag when he was poisoned, a Malaysian court has heard. The half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was murdered at Kuala Lumpur's international airport in February.
Two women, Indonesian Siti Aisyah, 25, and Doan Thi Huong, a 29-year-old Vietnamese, are accused of conspiring with four North Korean fugitives in the murder. Prosecutors say they smeared banned chemical weapon VX on the victim's face, but they say they thought they were taking part in a TV prank.
The court heard that Kim Jong Nam had a dozen vials of atropine, an antidote for poisons such as the VX that killed him. It is unclear why he did not try to use it. Instead, he stumbled into a clinic at the airport and asked for help.
A doctor who gave evidence in court earlier, said that a nurse had wiped an "odourless water-like" fluid from his face and that his blood pressure had hit a "life-threatening level". He had then developed a seizure and died on the way to hospital.
A post mortem examination showed VX on his face, in his eyes, blood, urine, on his clothing and bag. His organs, including his brain, lungs, liver and spleen, were damaged.
North Korea has denied any involvement in the death. Kim Jong Nam had previously criticised his family's rule of North Korea and lived in exile in Macau.
The trial will now go into recess until 22 January. When the case resumes, defence lawyers are expected to cross examine the chief police investigator, questioning him about the role of North Korean chemist Ri Jong Chol. Mr Ri was a key suspect but was released due to lack of evidence and deported.
Prosecutors are expected to conclude their case in March...'

Except, we all thought it anyway!!
Quote:North Korea used VX nerve agent to kill leader's brother, says US.
'The half-brother of Kim Jong-un was killed by a chemical attack in Malaysia on the orders of the North Korean government, the US has concluded.
Kim Jong-nam died after a bizarre encounter at Kuala Lumpur airport in 2017, when two women smeared his face with VX nerve agent. The women, who say they believed they were carrying out a prank for a TV show, are on trial for murder.
The US said it would impose new sanctions on North Korea in response.
"This public display of contempt for universal norms against chemical weapons use further demonstrates the reckless nature of North Korea and underscores that we cannot afford to tolerate a North Korean WMD program of any kind," said State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert.
The US has consistently accused North Korea of being behind the attack on Kim Jong-nam. North Korea denies any involvement...'
