Cops probing origin of chemical weapon

Feb 24, 2017

Police are investigating how the chemical weapon used to murder the North Korean man at KLIA2 last week, got into Malaysia.

The IGP says if a small amount was smuggled into the country, it would have been very hard to detect.

This, after a preliminary report by the Chemistry Department determined that the deceased died of exposure to the chemical VX, a nerve agent that is banned globally.
