Protest outside embassy

A group of about 50 protested outside the North Korean Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, urging Malaysia to reconsider its diplomatic ties with the country. Deputy Umno Youth chief Khairul Azwan Harun said Malaysia should also withdraw from the visa-free agreement with the hermit kingdom. He said recent statements by the embassy over the death of Kim Jong-nam were clearly a violation of Malaysia’s sovereignty and legal process.
