Ri Jong Chol, 46, was arrested Friday night in a raid based on information given police from one of two women earlier arrested; he's now the fourth person arrested in the incident, but apparently not the last. "We are searching for a few more," says a local police chief. Those few more, reports the AP, are four North Korean men who left Malaysia the day Kim died. The men hold regular, not diplomatic passports That's all enough for South Korea to throw the blame for his death at Pyongyang, reports the BBC. "We believe the North Korean regime is behind this incident considering five suspects are North Koreans," says a unification ministry spokesman. "Considering North Korea has so far committed crimes against humanity and terror acts, we, together with the international community, are closely watching this brutal, reckless incident with serious concerns," he added. Malaysia's national police chief says he expects autopsy results within days, a procedure that was performed over North Korea's protestations. North Korea's ambassador accused Malaysia of "trying to conceal something," and complained that the autopsy was performed "unilaterally and excluding our attendance."
