North Korea's plot to kill Kim Jong Un's nephew foiled by Chinese officials, report says

By Katherine Lam | Fox News

Several North Korean agents were reportedly arrested after Chinese officials foiled an alleged plot to kill Kim Jong Un’s nephew— the son of the half-brother poisoned this year in a Malaysian airport.

Two of the seven North Korean agents who were involved in the alleged plot were arrested in Beijing, South Korean newspaper JoongAng Ilbo reported Monday, citing North Korean sources. The plot was stopped because Chinese officials increased security during the country’s 19th National Congress of the Communist Party.

"Special operatives belonging to the North's reconnaissance squad have penetrated to remove Kim Han Sol, but some of them were arrested last week by the Chinese Ministry of National Security and are currently under investigation at special facilities outside Beijing,” the source told JongAng Ilbo.

The Chinese need organ donors. Best harvested from live donors.

It might indicate that China is planning to slim down the leadership in NK.

Not good for the NORK’s involved.
Wonder how much information the CHICOMs will extract before the poor operatives “expire” due to natural causes?

Could Kim Jong Un be on his way to becoming Kimchi?

I’d want to know more about this kid before I feel sorry about him. Did he help Un fire the anti-aircraft guns?
