SHAH ALAM: The defence team of Doan Thi Huong, the Vietnamese woman accused of killing Kim Jong-nam, says that they were kept in the dark over the identities of four other individuals accused of the same crime.

One of the lawyers for Doan Thi Huong, 29, said it was unfair for the prosecution not to disclose their details as this would create a disadvantage for the defence.
