The North Korean embassy has cast aspersion on inspector-general of police Khalid Abu Bakar's claim that the two women detained in connection with Kim Jong-nam's murder applied toxic substance to the deceased's face with their bare hands.
In a media statement issued this afternoon, the embassy wondered how the two women were still alive if this was the case.
“Malaysia has been conducting the investigation based on the CCTV footage (of the incident) that was released to the public and the delusion that the female suspects daubed the poison on the victim's face with their own hands.
“Then how is it possible that these female suspects could be alive after the incident?”
Based on this, the embassy concluded that the liquid was smeared on Jong-nam's face as a joke, and it was not poison as claimed.
It added that there must be another cause which led to Jong-nam's death on Feb 13.
Therefore, the embassy said Malaysian authorities should immediately release the “innocent females from Indonesia and Vietnam” as well as the North Korean citizen “who was arrested unreasonably.”
