N. Korean media: Army chief relieved of all posts
None
Kim Jong Un's top military official, a key mentor to North Korea's young new leader who had served under his father, has been removed from all posts because of illness, state media said Monday.
But Ri Yong Ho had looked healthy in recent appearances, and that fed speculation among analysts that Kim purged him in an effort to put his own mark on the regime he inherited seven months ago when Kim Jong Il died. (AP)
