Kim Jong-Nam’s wife and children, who were living in exile in the Chinese territory of Macau, have since gone into hiding over fears that his 21-year-old son, Kim Han-Sol, could be seen as a


potential rival by his uncle Kim Jong-Un in a country roiled by bloody purges. The brazen Cold War-style killing triggered a bitter diplomatic row between the previously friendly Asian


nations, which have expelled each other's ambassador and refused to let their citizens leave. North Korea never confirmed the identity of the dead man, but denounced the Malaysian


investigation as an attempt to smear the secretive regime, insisting that he most likely died of a heart attack. Expelled North Korean ambassador Kang Chol slammed what he called a


"pre-targeted investigation by the Malaysian police" on Monday, just before leaving the country. Pyongyang retaliated by formally expelling his Malaysian counterpart, who was


already back in Kuala Lumpur for consultations.
