The sister of North Korea's supreme leader, dictator Kim Jong-un, could be even more ruthless than her brother - and is lying in wait to seize power if he dies after being struck him down by a mystery illness.
The supreme leader, who fell ill earlier this week, has shown no mercy to dissenters in the world’s most secretive country, including members of his own family.
Reports suggest Kim Jong-un is still in control of North Korea's missiles despite his illness, having previously provoked the US and its ally South Korea with missile tests, demonstrating his ability to strike both countries.
And there are fears his sister, who shares his passion for weapons development, could do more of the same to “show her mettle”, the Mirror reports.
