Women trained to seduce ... and kill

Mystery woman: A CCTV screen grab showing a woman outside what looked like the airport, was circulated briefly after news broke last night that the half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un had been killed in Malaysia. The picture fits the description of one of the two women believed to be North Korean spies, who had poisoned Kim Jong-nam during a brazen attack at KLIA2.

PETALING JAYA: North Korea has been known to use women as part of its clandestine operations, some of which involve murder.

For example, the now-exiled Kim Hyun-hee was one of many such women involved in the isolated regime’s plots.
