SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea aired a rerun of a TV documentary on Saturday about its leader Kim Jong Un that cut out appearances by his uncle who had been considered the second most powerful man in the country, reinforcing reports that he has been ousted.
North Korea's official TV broadcast the documentary, which had already been aired nine times. But this time, Kim's uncle, Jang Song Thaek, appeared in different positions to make his face invisible or entire scenes were re-edited to remove him, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported.
