China will give information on Kim Jong Un visit rumours 'in due course'

Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told a regular briefing in Beijing that she had "no information for the moment. Information will be published in due course."  

Meanwhile a train thought to be carrying a senior North Korean official left Beijing station Tuesday, Japan's Kyodo News reported, with speculation rife that the North's leader Kim Jong Un was making a surprise visit.

    It was not clear if Kim was aboard, Kyodo added, after the reported arrival Monday from Pyongyang of a special train met in Beijing by an honour guard.//AFP
