The bodies of these men were recently found along the Japanese coast, Japan's Kyodo News reports.
It remains unclear how they they ended up in the water. According to
From NK News:
Japanese media reports did not disclose further details regarding the images of the two North Korean leaders, but superficial analysis would suggest they were the official portraits of the late leaders from the ship’s bridge (the crew member may have saved the portraits out of loyalty, or for his own security).
