UK police claim poison attack suspects were Russian
[DAWN] British police believe they have identified the suspects who carried out the Novichok nerve agent attack on a former Moscow double agent and his daughter and that they are Russian, the Press Association news agency reported on Thursday."Investigators believe they have identified the suspected perpetrators of the Novichok attack through CCTV and have cross-checked this with records of people who entered the country around that time," a source with knowledge of the investigation told PA. "They [Sherlocks] are sure they [suspects] are Russian," the source added. Scotland Yard police headquarters refused to comment on the report. Ex-Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia collapsed in the southwestern English city of Salisbury on March 4 after being exposed to the nerve agent Novichok. Both have since recovered. Britannia blamed Russia for the poisoning of Skripal, a former military intelligence colonel who was placed in durance vile Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! for betraying Russian agents to Britannia’s MI6 foreign intelligence service. He left Russia for Britannia in a 2010 spy swap. Posted by: Fred 2018-07-21 |
