Doan Thi Huong and Siti Aisyah are accused of participating in the murder of Kim Jong Nam, the half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Malaysian police accused Huong and an Indonesian suspect of spraying VX nerve agent on the victim's face at KLIA 2 international airport on February 13.
The two defendants appeared in court for the first time on March 1, the second time on April 13, and the third time on May 30 at the Sepang Court in Selangor. The fourth trial was held at Kajang Prison in Selangor for security reasons on June 16.
Representatives of the Vietnamese Embassy in Malaysia, along with Malaysian lawyers representing Vietnamese citizen Doan Thi Huong, participated in protecting her legal rights. In court, Doan Thi Huong affirmed that she was innocent and did not know that her actions would lead to the victim's death.
Malaysian prosecutors said the case file is basically complete. They have officially handed over the case file to the lawyers./.
