Pyongyang also targeted Jong-nam’s son, says WSJ
Updated 12 hours ago · Published on 2 Oct 2017
SHORTLY after the murder of Kim Jong-nam on February 13 at klia2, the North Korean regime began targeting his son, Kim Han-sol, reports The Wall Street Journal, ahead of the father’s murder trial in Shah Alam today.
However, North Korean dissidents belonging to a secretive group called Cheollima Civil Defence whisked Han-sol, 21, and his mother and sister to safety from their Macau base.
The Kim family are now living in an unidentified country.
Cheollima has agreed to speak to a media organisation for the first time, said WSJ, on the trio’s flight to safety shortly after Jong-nam’s murder at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2.
Jong-nam’s half-brother, North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, is accused of ordering the murder to safeguard the Kim dynasty. Jong-un also allegedly executed his uncle, Jang Song Thaek, in 2013 for building a rival power base.
Han-sol, his mother and sister first flew to Taipei where they spent a tense 30 hours in the airport trying to confirm travel and visas for a final destination, a source told WSJ.
Cheollima said the United States, China and the Netherlands provided assistance with travel, visas or other aspects of the plan.
Cheollima is one of several groups helping those seeking to escape the Kim Jong-un regime and is made up of those inside and outside the country. The organisation has helped North Koreans defectors escape through China and into Southeast Asia.
Jong-nam’s family contacted the group directly soon after his killing and on March 7, the group released a video of Han-sol with his passport and confirming he was safe with his mother and sister.
The Jong-nam murder trial begins today in Shah Alam. Vietnamese Doan Thi Huong and Indonesian Siti Aishah are charged with the murder. – October 2, 2017.

Probably here in the US at an undisclosed location...
Two accused plead not guilty in Kim Jong Nam murder trial

Gee, I wonder what country they are in.................
Nobody can kill Kim Han Solo.
RE: Nobody can kill Kim Han Solo.
Han Solo was killed by his own son...
Nope, remember that the Death Stars are powered by Jedi crystals. When Han Solo fell into the core he truly became one with the force and thus immortal.
Just kidding. His son, a whiny, whinging, butt-hurt SJW, killed him.
That being said, with CGI and AI making great leaps and bounds, Harrison Ford will eventually be resurrected as a virtual actor in many Star Wars movies. As long as people goto see Star Wars he will be popping up like a digital ghost because of money.
“NHK said the visit was intended to get Russian help to contain China’s efforts to fully implement the resolution of the UN.”

Perhaps this:
A state-owned Russian telecommunications firm has given North Korea a new Internet connection, potentially increasing Pyongyang's ability to stage cyberattacks and protect the embattled country's online infrastructure.
What is important is that China is reducing its assistance to NK, while Russia is increasing its cooperation.
True, but we should ask why is Russia increasing its assistance to NK?
“If North Korea draws the U.S. into war on the Korean Peninsula, Russia will seize the opportunity to invade Eastern Europe.”
