Two women suspected of killing Kim Jong Nam may be dead
TOKYO (KOREA HERALD/THE STAR/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - The two women who allegedly killed Mr Kim Jong Nam, half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, in Malaysia on Monday (Feb 13) may already be dead, Japan's Kyodo News reported.
"There have been reports that (the two suspects) may already be dead," the news outlet said, citing a ranking official of the Japanese government.
The official, however, did not specify the cause of their assumed death, be it homicide or suicide.
North Korean special agents had in the past attempted suicide after their missions. An example was Kim Hyun Hee, the convicted bomber of a South Korean airplane in 1987 under the direction of the North Korean regime. After carrying out the act which led to the deaths of 115 passengers, Kim tried to commit suicide but failed.

I've heard people mention "The great unraveling " and I just blew it off, but now I'm starting to wonder.
a shirt reading "LOL". She has been arrested and carries a Vietnamese passport. Straits Times is also reporting this.
