North Korean officials are escorting the body of Kim Jong Nam back from Malaysia back to Pyongyang.

North Korean officials were seen gathering at Beijing airport after disembarking from a Malaysian Airlines flight on March 31.

Malaysia exchanged Kim’s body for the release of nine Malaysian citizens held by Pyongyang in a diplomatic spat over Kim’s death.

Kim Jong Nam was the estranged half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

Kim was assassinated at Kuala Lumpur Airport on Feb 13.

U.S. and South Korean intelligence sources said Pyongyang is behind the assassination.
