A suspect in the murder of Kim Jong-nam had a wild night out just 24 hours before the assassination – joking she was going to be a ‘big star’.
Siti Aisyah’s friends chipped in to throw a birthday party for her at a well-known night club in Kuala Lumpur on Feb 12.
Just a day before the death of Jong-nam, half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, she said she was to take part in a ‘prank for a reality show’.

In a video published by China Daily, Siti Aisyah laughed and covered her face shyly when her friends commented she was going to be a ‘big star’.

She was 25 on Feb 11 – two days before Jong-nam was killed using the lethal chemical weapon VX in the budget airline terminal of Kuala Lumpur international airport.
“I do not believe Siti Aisyah would kill someone just for money,” her best friend said. “It is impossible. I think she has been framed.”
She said Siti Aisyah did not know Jong-nam and had no motive to kill him.

She claimed Aisyah was innocent. Aisyah has told authorities she was paid £72 to carry out the attack , but thought they were wiping Jong-nam’s face with baby oil, not VX, the most lethal chemical agent known to man.
The revelations emerged as North Korea was accused of operating a regiment-level biochemical weapons unit by old enemy South Korea.
Their military warned they had to be prepared for unconventional attacks in the wake of Jong-nam’s assassination with VX, classified by the United Nations as a weapon of mass destruction and banned around the world.

South Korea’s Ministry of National Defence claimed North Korea operated production facilities for chemical and biological weapons, and has a stockpile of such materials that can be used in any attack.
Playboy Jong-nam, 46, collapsed and died after two women allegedly wiped the highly toxic substances across his face. One was vomiting after the attack because of her exposure to a substance which is renowned as one of the world’s deadliest poisons.
A hundredth of a gram is enough to kill within 30 minutes. A drop on a cloth would have been enough to take his life.

Experts claim its use put beyond any doubt that the so-called ‘playboy prince’ had been assassinated on the orders of his half brother after he criticised the secretive communist regime in 2012.
Absorbed in large doses, it is fatal after 15 minutes, according to the U.S. Army’s Edgewood Chemical Biological Center, making it the most toxic known nerve agent in the world.
CCTV footage captured the moment Jong-nam was brazenly murdered at the packed airport.
It is still not known how the agent was applied without the woman becoming ill.
Footage begins with him arriving at the concourse in Kuala Lumpur International Airport in a light jacket and carrying a backpack.
He is shown looking at the flight departure boards with other passengers.

Kim, who was preparing to fly to Macau, goes to a ticket machine while the suspects are also shown lurking in the vicinity.
The "LOL jumper" suspect Doan Thi Huong approaches him from behind.

She reaches around appears to target his face, possibly with a poisoned cloth or spray while still standing behind him.
The two appear to wrestle for a second.



Other travellers stand nearby and don’t appear to realise what has just occurred.
The attacker then casually walks off unrushed.


Kim is then shown seeking help from airport staff as he complains about the incident.
He is then shown in the airport’s medical clinic.

He later died on the way to hospital.
South Korean and U.S. officials have said Kim Jong Nam was assassinated by North Korean agents.
Malaysian police said on Sunday that four North Korean suspects in the murder fled Malaysia on the day of the killing.

Malaysian police arrested a North Korean man on Friday in connection to the murder, while the Vietnamese woman and Indonesian woman have also been arrested.
Interpol will now be asked to help in the hunt for seven North Koreans linked to the murder, including a diplomat and airline official said to be in hiding in the country’s embassy in Kuala Lumpur.
The hermit state has accused Malaysia of having “sinister” purposes – saying Jong nam died of ‘heart stroke’.
Police also want to speak to Jong-nam’s mistress as they probe his murder, according to sources in Malaysia.
North Korean So Yong Ra, 41, is a former air stewardess with Air Koryo, North Korea’s national flag carrier.
Her name has previously been reported as So Yong La.
Channel NewsAsia, who published a photo of her, said she was from Pyongyang.
A police source said: “She is believed to have lived in Macau together with him since 2001 and eventually got married.
“She worked at Air Koryo from 1992 to 1998. She studied at the Pyongyang Music and Dance University.”
It has been previously reported Jong-nam had two wives, at least one mistress and several children, including a son and a daughter by his second wife, Lee Hye-Kyong.
