According to Malaysian media sources, the North Korean government consistently said during the negotiation that the victim’s name was Kim Chol as indicated on a passport, and requested for a transfer of the body by the name of Kim Chol’s wife Lee Yong Hee. It seems that North Korea has created an imaginary wife after Malaysia requested for consent by the victim’s family for a transfer of the body. It is possible that Kim Jong Nam’s wife Shin Jong Hee living in Beijing used the fake name of Ms. Lee. In addition, North Korea might have submitted a DNA sample of Kim’s eldest son Kim Kum Sol with China’s assistance.
The swap deal between two countries was made on Thursday. On the same day, the body of Kim, wrapped in layers of plastic and strings, two suspects and four officers of North Korea’s negotiation team left the Kuala Lumpur airport around 7:45 p.m. via Malaysia Airlines flight MH360. After a few minutes, a plane carrying nine Malaysians left Pyongyang. The swap of the citizens of two countries reminds people of operations of a secret intelligence war.
