UPDATE 2
via The New York Post:
Kim Jong-nam was walking through the airport in the capital city of Kuala Lumpur on Monday morning, when the two women made a beeline for him, plunging the “poison needles” into his body, The Telegraph reported Tuesday.
The portly 45-year-old playboy, who was the oldest son of former North Korean dictator Kim Jong il, died en-route to a local hospital, Reuters said.
the possibly satirical DPRK News service on twitter reported this as " Indigestion epidemic in Malaysia claims life of esteemed Kim Jong-Nam. Unsanitary food practices of filthy Malaysian peoples is blamed."
