SHAH ALAM (AP): An Indonesian woman held two years on suspicion of killing Kim Jong-nam, the half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, was freed from custody Monday (March 11) after a Malaysian judge discharged the murder charge against her.

The judge discharged Siti Aisyah without an acquittal after prosecutors said they wanted to withdraw the charge without giving a reason.
