Video has emerged of a man claiming to be the son of the slain, estranged half- brother of North Korea's leader, who says he is lying low with his mother and sister. During the 40-second video, the man says his father was killed a few days ago. Reuters could not independently verify the video but the man closely resembled Kim Han-sol, who was last interviewed on camera in 2012 by former Finnish defence minister Elisabeth Rehn. Kim Han-sol is the son of Kim Jong Nam's second wife, who had been living in the Chinese territory of Macau with Kim under Beijing's protection after the family went into exile a several years ago. South Korean intelligence officers say North Korean leader Kim Jong-un had ordered the elimination of his elder half-brother.
