Kim: Malaysia Releases North Korean Detainee

The only North Korean held in Malaysia in connection with the death of Kim Jong-nam has been released by police.

Officials have said there is insufficient evidence to charge Ri Jong Chol, and that he will be deported over immigration offences.

Nearly three weeks after the killing, Malaysia has condemned the use of the powerful VX nerve agent in the attack.

The Malaysia Foreign Ministry statement said it was "greatly concerned" its use could have endangered the public.
