Suspicion

Kim Jong-Un is seen looking suspiciously at his uncle in July
From Sky News

What does that glance say to you? A portent of execution by machine gun? Well as we now know - that's how it turned out.

    How they are related: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/12/13/article-2522859-1A14A87B00000578-175_634x485.jpg

    So, his great-uncle rather than his uncle, by marriage on his father's side of the family.

    Technically, it may be termed parricide, I think: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parricide

    - as avunculicide appears to cover the murder of an uncle on the mother's side.

    The ancient Greeks would have worked up the Kim dysnasty story into a 3-parter, I think.

    Sackers - interesting. Presumably disposing of a blood relative in this way may have been problematic in view North Korea's three generations of punishment policy.
