(Kim Jong-il)Suspicions arise over cause of death


Suspicions arise over cause of death



In the wake of the announcement of the death of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, speculation has mushroomed over the cause, mainly because of the extreme secrecy in the Stalinist state.

North Korea’s Central News Agency reported Monday that Kim died of a heart attack last Saturday on a train while heading to an unidentified destination.

Previously, the late North Korean leader had suffered two strokes; and his declining health had spurred speculation among those outside the North that his death was near.

Given this, the announcement wasn’t unexpected.

Or was it his son? In any case, I thought that might have been a cause to off him.
