A special train possibly belonging to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was spotted this week at a resort town in the country, according to satellite images reviewed by a Washington-based North Korea monitoring project, amid conflicting reports about Kim's health and whereabouts.

The monitoring project, 38 North, said in its report on Saturday that the train was parked at the "leadership station" in Wonsan on April 21 and April 23. The station is reserved for the use of the Kim family, it said.

Though the group said it was probably Kim Jong Un's train, Reuters has not been able to confirm that independently, or whether he was in Wonsan.

"The train's presence does not prove the whereabouts of the North Korean leader or indicate anything about his health but it does lend weight to reports that Kim is staying at an elite area on the country's eastern coast," the report said.

Speculation about Kim's health first arose due to his absence from the anniversary of the birthday of North Korea's founding father and Kim's grandfather, Kim Il Sung, on April 15.

North Korea's state media last reported on Kim's whereabouts when he presided over a meeting on April 11.

China has dispatched a team to North Korea including medical experts to advise on Kim Jong Un, according to three people familiar with the situation.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's health is reportedly in a vegetative state after undergoing a failed cardiovascular procedure earlier this month, according to the medical team treating him.

Amid conflicting reports about Kim's health, Japanese weekly magazine Shukan Gendai reported on Friday that a Chinese medical team member on the mission to North Korea briefly explained the situation to its senior writer, Kondm Daisuke.

The medical expert said during a visit to the countryside earlier this month, Kim clutched his chest and fell to the ground. A doctor accompanying Kim immediately carried out CPR and took him to a nearby hospital for emergency care.

Reuters was unable to immediately determine what the trip by the Chinese team signaled in terms of Kim's health. However Shukan Gendai's report claims they were called to the leader's aid by his accompanying doctor after the incident.

If he is indeed in a vegetative state, it's a once in a lifetime chance for the North Koreans to get rid of him. All that's needed is for one of the doctors treating him to do some magic and eliminate any chance of him recovering.

It could be a trap to lure out his enemy.

Pretend you are going to die. Your enemy makes a move to position themselves to take over. Then you re appears all healthy and fine.

• Hide behind the mask of a fool, a drunk, or a madman to create confusion about your intentions and motivations. Lure your opponent into underestimating your ability until, overconfident, he drops his guard. Then you may attack.

You can't pretend to be in a vegetative state. The doctors treating him will obviously know if he is pretending. I am not saying some soldier should barge into the room and fire on him. That would be silly. I am saying one of the doctors treating him(if he is indeed in a vegetative state) should kill him. Just disconnect one of the life support devices for a few minutes, no one will know the difference. Of course, it is easier said than done. Pretty sure there would be guards and all surrounding him. But it is the best opportunity they have.

You do realise that doctor could have family members that he could end up endangering. Very naive thinking.

nice twist in the story, but he wont be dead, he will go in hiding for few years and them come back to reclaim...or all this was his plan all along.....
