With a North Korean arrested and others said to have left the country on the day of the murder, Malaysia held a reconstruction of the murder scene.

Four suspects being hunted by Bukit Aman in the assassination of North Korean exile Kim Jong-nam are believed to have left Malaysia and are back in Pyongyang.

Reports indicate they left the country for Jakarta immediately after the attack, flying to Dubai and Vladivostok before reaching Pyongyang.

The four – Rhi Ji-hyon, 33, (arrived in Malaysia on Feb 4), Hong Song-hac, 34, (arrived Jan 31), O Jong-gil, 55, (arrived Feb 7) and Ri Jae-nam, 57, (arrived Feb 1) – left for Jakarta from KLIA2 immediately after the attack on Monday.

The Foreign Ministry of Indonesia has reported that Malaysian authorities have held a reconstruction of the alleged murder of Kim Jong-nam, which reportedly involved an Indonesian woman and a Vietnamese passport holder.

A Malaysian man said to be the boyfriend of the Indonesia citizen, is also among those arrested.
