In recent months, there have been a lot of rumors swirling around about the death of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Some have even gone so far as to say that he has been dead for weeks or even months. So, what is the truth? Did Kim Jong Un actually die?
The official story is that Kim Jong Un is alive and well, but there are many rumors swirling around that suggest he may have died. It’s hard to know for sure what the truth is, but it’s definitely possible that Kim Jong Un is no longer alive.
How did Kim Jong-Nam died?
Kim Jong-nam was the eldest son of Kim Jong-il, the former North Korean leader, and his first wife, Song Hye-rim. He had been living in exile in Malaysia and was believed to be critical of the regime in Pyongyang.
His death was widely believed to have been ordered by his half-brother Kim Jong-un, who is the current North Korean leader. Jong-nam had been seen as a potential threat to Jong-un’s rule.
The Malaysian authorities said that Jong-nam was exposed to the highly toxic nerve agent VX and died within 20 minutes. This was the first known use of VX in an assassination.
The two women accused of carrying out the attack, Doan Thi Huong of Vietnam and Siti Aisyah of Indonesia, said they had been tricked into thinking they were taking part in a reality TV show. They are currently on trial in Malaysia.
The two women charged with the murder of Kim Jong-nam have had their charges dropped, although Hương pled guilty to “voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapons or means” and was sentenced to three years and four months. This is a developing story and more details are sure to emerge in the coming days.

Why is North Korea kidnapped?
The victims of North Korean abductions are typically taken for the purpose of teaching Japanese language and culture at North Korean spy schools. However, older victims are also sometimes abducted in order to obtain their identities. This allows the North Korean government to create false identities for its spies and other agents.
The North Korean authorities have always maintained that the death penalty is only imposed in very serious cases, and that it is not applied in political cases. They claim that the last execution took place in 1992. Amnesty International has been dialoguing with the North Korean authorities on this issue, and is urging them to provide more information on the use of the death penalty in the country.
Who is the first person to escape North Korea?
Shin Dong-hyuk was born Shin In Geun at the Kaechon internment camp, commonly known as Camp 14. He was born into a life of starvation, cruelty, and hard labor, with no hope of ever leaving the camp. When he was 23 years old, he managed to escape, and he is now one of the few people to have ever escaped from a North Korean labor camp. In his autobiography, he describes the horrifying conditions of the camp and the people who live there.
North Korea is a country with very strict controls on emigration and immigration. North Korean citizens usually cannot freely travel around the country, let alone travel abroad. This lack of freedom of movement means that North Koreans are not able to experience the world beyond their own country.
Can Americans go to North Korea
Since the early 1950s, the United States has maintained a policy of not allowing its citizens to travel to North Korea. This policy is in place because of the threat that the North Korean government poses to both the United States and its allies. The restrictions in place previously restricted Americans’ ability to engage in direct exchange activities with DPRK citizens, have direct contact with North Korean individuals within the DPRK, and travel by train between Sinuiju and Pyongyang. These restrictions have been lifted as of September 1, 2017, but Americans are still advised not to travel to North Korea due to the dangers that the country poses.
It is evident that the North Korean government now considers the issue of abductions closed, as no further abductees have been returned to Japan since October 2002. However, the families of those abducted and their supporters continue to press the Japanese government on the issue, and it remains a priority in Tokyo.
What happens to murderers in North Korea?
It is estimated that North Korea carries out around 80 executions per year, with the majority carried out by a firing squad. Although executions are not technically carried out in public, they are often done in front of large groups of people, which makes them effectively public executions. North Korea is one of the last four countries to still perform public executions, along with Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Somalia.
Park Myung-sik was a North Korean serial killer who was convicted of killing twelve teenagers in Sinpo from April to October 1990, in order to eat their livers to cure his cirrhosis. park was nicknamed “The Organ Harvester” by media.
Does North Korea have jail
The North Korean prison system is brutal and inhumane. Former inmates who have escaped the country have said that prisoners are poorly fed, live in crowded cells, and are subjected to torture, backbreaking labor and sexual abuse. This is a gross violation of human rights and needs to be stopped.
If the defectors are caught in China, they are repatriated back to North Korea, where rights groups say they often face harsh interrogations and years of punishment, or even death, in kwalliso prison camps (such as the Pukch’ang camp), or in kyohwaso reeducation camps (such as the Chungsan camp or Chongo-ri camp).
Why is North Korea closed America?
US nationals are advised not to travel to North Korea due to the continuing serious risk of arrest and long-term detention. Increased caution should be exercised when travelling to North Korea due to the critical threat of wrongful detention.
North Korea’s long-range missile and nuclear programs are a major security challenge for the region. Any instability or conflict on the Korean Peninsula would have severe repercussions for the strategic, economic and humanitarian aspects of the region.
Conclusion
There is no solid evidence that Kim Jong Un is dead, although there have been many rumors to that effect. Some believe that he is simply hiding out due to the intense international pressure on his regime, while others think that he may have been deposed in a coup. Until we have more information, it is impossible to know for sure what has happened to Kim Jong Un.
There is still much debated over whether or not Kim Jong Un is actually dead or alive. The lack of concrete evidence either way leaves room for speculation. However, many believe that he is probably alive and well, given the lack of any evidence to the contrary.
