The NIS report was disclosed by lawmakers who attended the closed committee session.
The teenager was last seen leaving his hotel in the southern Turkish city of Kilis — not far from the border. South Korea’s foreign ministry said earlier that CCTV footage obtained by Turkish police showed Kim taking an unlicensed taxi, together with an unidentified man, outside a mosque near his hotel. They got out near a refugee camp at Besiriye, about 18 kilometres (11 miles) southeast of Kilis, the ministry said.
