British police investigate murder investigation: The 44-year-old Briton, poisoned by Nowitschok neurotoxin, died at the hospital on Sunday night. The wife of 45 years of his wife is still in danger of death.
The two Novitschok victims in the UK were exposed to a "tainted object" during their poisoning on June 30, according to British police. Scotland Yard said the latest tests on the case revealed that.
The case evokes memories of the poisoning of former Russian agent Sergei Skripal at Salisbury in early March, that British sources have also committed with Nowitschok, for which the British government accuses Russia.
Unlike the case of Skripal, British investigators do not expect a targeted attack on the pair, however. The source of Nowichok's poison in the recent case remains unclear.
British Prime Minister Theresa May announced a thorough investigation into the Nowitschok case renewed in the United Kingdom. "The police, I know, will not leave stone in the investigation to clarify the events," said May. The new case was "deeply troubling," May said Thursday at a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Berlin
