North Korea says Malaysia cannot be trusted to investigate the murder of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un’s half brother Kim Jong-nam.

North Korean Ambassador to Malaysia Kang Chol made the remarks on Monday, after he was summoned by Malaysia's Foreign Ministry, and denied speculations that Pyongyang was behind the murder. 

Malaysian police on Sunday held a news conference and identified North Korean suspects involved in the case, hinting that the North Korean regime is behind Kim’s murder.

However, Kang argued that South Korea is the only party who benefits from the case.  He also accused Malaysia of colluding with Seoul behind the North's back, and said their false accusations will be disproved by the international community.

The North Korean envoy proposed that North Korea and Malaysia should open a joint investigation into Kim’s death.
