Vietnamese national, Doan Thi Huong leaves Shah Alam High Court escorted by Malaysian police, outside Kuala Lumpur on March 14, 2019.
The sensational killing made headlines around the world, and sparked a furious diplomatic row as Seoul accused Pyongyang of an elaborate plot to murder a figure who had spent years in exile and been critical of his family’s rule. Then last month they withdrew murder charges against Huong, who pleaded guilty to a reduced count of “causing injury” and was told she would be released in May at the end of her sentence.
She was expected to head to an immigration office in administrative capital Putrajaya to sort out documentation before flying to Vietnam in the evening.While there is relief for the women, no one else is in custody over the murder and those behind the plot are unlikely to ever be punished. Kim, who fell from grace in the North after a bizarre attempt to visit Tokyo Disneyland, died shortly afterwards, his face smeared with poison.
Vietnam then stepped up pressure for Huong’s murder charge to be dropped and at the start of April prosecutors offered her the lesser charge, paving the way for her release.
She'll die within a month trust me
