spies for our alleged Russian interference he's showing no sign of abating covert operations Russia's military forces invade Ukraine rumors of dark influence one of president Putin's critics lies dead as the world wonders how far Russia will go there's a clue in a shocking case from a decade ago it's full story still untold the murder of a British citizen on British soil using the deadliest poison known to man a state-sponsored killing in London by means of radioactivity is quite extraordinary ten years on Alexander Litvinenko's killings are still at large and for his family no justice did the Russian state day I just let the evidence speak for itself the detectives who investigated the murder have never before spoken but now they Litvinenko's Widow and the son he left behind tell the inside story for the first time it's not only about the investigation of crime it's right story how to be human it's a story that reads like a cold war crime thriller but is darker than any fiction this order can be given by only one person president of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin [Music] I remember sitting in my office on the 15th floor of Scotland Yard when an officer came in and the story he told was quite extraordinary there was a man lying in a hospital bed in North London who was claiming that he was a former KGB officer and that he had been poisoned the patient had given his name as edwin carter had been admitted two weeks earlier it was explained to us that edwin carter was seriously ill they didn't know what was wrong with him the patient had ulcers in his throat and he could not eat or drink he believed you'd been poisoned with the heavy-metal thallium [Music] it was consistent with some of his signs and symptoms so for example he'd lost his hair his blood counts had dropped he was very anxious and seemed very preoccupied in trying to make the point that something illegal had been done I asked whether they could guarantee that cars would survive until the following morning learning the absence of then being able to give us that guarantee or I decided that we should start getting his account just after midnight the police started recording his interview he began with an astonishing claim my name is Edwin Carter I am British citizen I have in Russian I have named Alexander Litvinenko I am former KGB FSB officer my rank lieutenant colonel my position deputy head of section top-secret department of FSB of course at that time we had no way of knowing whether what Edwin Carter was saying was true can I ask you to tell us what you think has happened to you I have no doubt that they poison me all that is remain for me it's to prove this with medical examination she to mention someone who's quite ill potentially hallucinating and then starts to tell people and unravel his story that he's not really a pin Carter he's actually a former KGB colonel and he's been poisoned by vladimir putin's orders you can understand them people might have met that suggestion with some disbelief but Carter did offer the police one concrete lead the number of a contact he claimed to have had regular meetings with at a London book show on 31st October at about 4:00 p.m. I had a meeting arranged with the person about I like to talk here because I have some commitments you can contact the person when the police called the number a man known early as Martin came to the hospital Martin an mi6 officer confirmed the patient was Alexander or Sasha Litvinenko a former KGB agent now advised in mi6 on Russian organized crime Scotland Yard realized this would be no ordinary investigation let's try and understand why zeal let's try and get a story from him he was still able to talk was a criminal mystery of medical mystery find out which camp it fell into if it was medical mystery nothing to have us criminal we were going to be busy I born in Soviet Union in Verona I grew up in those cocks it's near Chechnya [Music] after school I've been recruited to Soviet Union Army in 1987 I sent to KGB for 11 years I be an officer of KGB I met Sasha in 1993 very funny very easy talking very young looking very handsome and very strong he worked under investigation of very serious crime but inside of Russia after 10 years service Litvinenko was promoted to a highly classified unit 1997 I sent to top-secret Department of KGB my department has duty killing political and high businessmen person without judge verdict in a lot of things what he was asked to do to kill Boris Berezovsky and adviser to Boris Yeltsin Berezovsky had masterminded his reelection in 1996 Litvinenko claimed he worked for a secret murder squad task with burrows or skis assassination after I had this order I said to my boss I refused after this open operation case against me and oppress I love Sasha for feeling nor thirst and if he think something's not right in 1998 President Yeltsin appointed Vladimir Putin is the director of the KGB now renamed the FSB Litvinenko raised his concerns about the abuse of power with his new boss Sasha said I'm going to see a new director vladimir putin say what they're going to say I'll go tell him everything what I know about corruption I have meeting with Putin face of face what Sasha mentioned immediately was very soft handshake I bring to Putin material about criminal inside FSB Putin took obviously opposite side later that year leper yangko and a handful of colleagues took the extraordinary step of blowing the whistle on state corruption at a press conference in Moscow organized study spots are delimiters on stimulates me near constitute or not select pizza pasta students delicious how sweet just a politics American teeny trailer when I asked Sasha what might happen to us after this press conference he said marina we have two ways one way they will kill me and another way they will arrest me [Music] Litvinenko was arrested and spent over a year in jail in 2000 he was released and fled the country I must escape from Russia we sit in aeroplanes went to London so it's safe my wife and son asked political asylum [Music] despite being in great pain he continued to answer police questions for more than nine hours over three days and nights you've never ever asked for rest he just said just please we need to work there was a clock ticking the idea was investigators to talk to him in as much detail in the short time he had left to elicit everything he knew because you weren't gonna get a second chance to take a witness statement for him up to now only a handful of people had seen Alexander Litvinenko in hospital his wife marina released a photo to show the world the impact of the poisoning I remember Sasha didn't like to look like that but in this moment Sasha said take this photo and I want people to see what they might do against people photographs showing his dramatic decline in health were released this evening as Scotland Yard said its counterterrorism unit was now leading an intensive investigation [Music] there's my chronic picture of sashes I called him he carries quite a lot of emotion for me and he did for the team at the time I what he doesn't capture is it doesn't capture the incredible suffering that he was in it doesn't capture the fact his throat was all blistered and he couldn't swallow you could hardly talk he was in diabolical pain Litvinenko knew that the heavy-metal thallium was a poison of choice to the KGB when he was diagnosed was poisoned now it was like a knowledge to know what happened to him before that he became worse but nobody can explain why the problem was that though it appeared Litvinenko had been poisoned no one could say exactly what with we were pretty confident that it was not going to be thallium you know that left us with nothing because all of the other heavy metals that we had looked for which are commonly used as poisons the screen for those was also negative [Music] with no medical explanation for Litvinenko's decline the police sought other ways to move the investigation forward post mortem is one of the most valuable tools in informing murder inquiries and sasha was obviously living and so I wanted to do they couldn't have a living post-mortem on Sasha do everything we can as if he'd died to try and find out have we got any puncture wounds look at all his samples like everything examine him head to toe see if we can find you know that trigger that reason that's led to his illness could a chemotherapy drug have been given to him could another heavy metal of being them culprit and then the idea of some radioactive substance was discussed one of our experts said well in them in the saucers urine we found a tiny spike of polonium but is probably an anomaly in the plastic container so I'm sitting there and obviously we've all grown up watching James Bond and we all know plutonium we all know uranium so I say polonium don't you mean plutonium so this fell a very very tolerant recess Mike life I mean polonium 210 was polonium 210 it's the most toxic substance known to men okay how do we find out a liter of little Yenko urine was sent to the high-security atomic weapons establishment at alder master but the tests would take almost 24 hours to complete meanwhile Litvinenko's life was slipping away for me it was not enter yet it's still enough power to fight for his life she smiled to me and said to me now I love you very much but this time when she said it was just so painful because it looks like he said goodbye Litvinenko had been fighting the poison for over 21 days and now he was sliding in and out of consciousness the pumping function of his heart deteriorated until on the night of the 22nd he suddenly collapsed and went into cardiac arrest the posh belvane when I first arrived somebody had already started resuscitation so there's about probably six of us in the room time goes very slowly during cardiac arrest he had about 30 minutes of resuscitation [Music] when we get a patient back it's that's a good moment so you've done something right for the patient [Music] at 3:00 p.m. experts from the atomic weapons establishment called Scotland Yard with the results of Litvinenko's urine tests it was a phone call his 10 years going to have a cleric I remember it I remember it like that he's polonium it's a million times a lethal dose he's dead no he's he's he's not he's not thatis he's very poorly based alive like life he's dead [Music] nine o'clock on the evening of the 23rd he suffered a further cardiac arrest [Music] we're sorry to announce that Alexander Litvinenko died at University College Hospital at 9:21 on the 23rd of November 2006 I remember it was quite young doctor who came to us and said unfortunately we tried everything but your husband just passed away I think can I see him disease of course you can see him and when we came to his room Anatole was with me ever and some EMF level get better he will recover and then quite honestly to me personally but when he actually died under 20 Fernand came to me as a massive shock because like it's over like it's sort of final few days I kept thinking he was going to recover [Music] I'm still remember human different way was it very handsome but more important thing I could hug him in the last time I could kiss him and I could feel his smell we now know the former Russian spy was poisoned by radioactive polonium and that is a first in the United Kingdom I'd never heard of polonium-210 I know nothing about radioactivity or about radioactive isotopes but it was absolutely clear that this was something completely out of the ordinary and it just changed the whole nature of what we were dealing with polonium is extremely rare five thousand times more radioactive than radium and when swallowed just one millionth of a gram is enough to kill for Scotland Yard the intensive care unit was now a crime scene it was sealed off with Litvinenko's body to protect both evidence and staff where the murder victim and the bodies is always a crime scene however they were contaminated polonium or no one knew what to do we didn't they're safe it was what we have now is a murder inquiry plain and simple you got to stick to the facts now in this case what that transpired as being was following the polonium trail around London the places he visited are now being searched and radioactive it have now been referred to a special traces of the substance that's believed a ratio to the public is very low remember coming out of a cobra meeting and there was a whole horde of photographers and reporters outside on the pavement and I'm a voice shouting at me mr. Clarke are the public safe I remember thinking to myself I haven't got a clue I don't know the polonium that killed Litvinenko is very difficult to manufacture this is something that is made in a reactor and therefore you have to have access to the products of a reactor and the place where that is made in Russia is a very high-security operation indeed so it was perfectly clear I mean that was a real marker of who might be involved smear chilaka ataxic the tragedy mr. Geum na school-community asthma medicines comes a cuchini Britain sketchy near to Kazan in a toaster della cisterna smear Scotland Yard now had to work out how the polonium had been brought into the UK and identify the assassin the clues were to be found in the extraordinary interview Liburnian code recorded just before his death I have no doubt who wanted this this was done by Russian Secret Service because I have knowledge of the system I know that to kill a citizen of another country this water can be given by only one person this person is President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin the focus for me was to look to see who'd had the opportunity to poison him I was surprised at the presence of mind he had as he was working through the possibilities of the various people that he'd met on the first of November he was working through it very much with a detectives mind Litvinenko told police that the day he fell ill he met with an Italian intelligence analyst Mario Scaramella called to my home phone Mario said to me Alexander please meeting [Music] Scaramella had sought Litvinenko's advice for an italian parliamentary inquiry into allegations that the KGB had tried to influence the Italian government mrs. Asha please don't eat because we're going to have this special dinner it's the first of November it's already six years since we came to UK and first time when will British citizen I find Mario in square Mario asked me go eating first restaurant it's so opposite Bond Street he suggests that we should sit somewhere quiet have something to eat and talk he's very very nervous he start talking very fast so she couldn't really understand why the meeting was really important wiping cold day and he flicked his suspicions later Scotland Yard sent an investigation team to itsu restaurant how do you search for Polonia the u.s. is searched for it with something a bit like a Dirt Devil Hoover because polonium crosses radioactive and it's dangerous he emits alpha waves and they only go only go about that far and so to detect them you have to be that close to them soon after they got in there remembers getting a phone call we've got positive indication of alpha radiation itsu restaurant could be on murder venue you could treat it as a claim of Cluedo that's not belittling the approach to it but clue don't you have a run you have a killer you have a weapon and when you get those things in your envelope you generally solved it Mario Scaramella became a person of interest if you're exposed to it what happens is is that you should creat it and you secrete it through sweat and you can't control that secretion so when you secrete it through sweat in fact we can when you touch something you pick something like we touch something we can actually map what you've been Scaramella had stayed at a thistle hotel in Victoria very quickly we established that the hotel they stayed in wasn't contaminated and mr. Scaramella it wasn't contaminated at all and so what we shall see him being involved they were fair that they were fairly remote but why is a sous restaurant contaminated the analysis when it was done goes to show that the West's camera had been sitting with Litvinenko when they had lunch on the women of the first that wasn't where the contamination was filmed turned out that that actually it was at a different table to the one which Scaramella and Nippon yangko had sat at on the first of November you could have taken a view that in the crude envelope each new restaurant was the venue polonium was the murder weapon thank you very much have a lovely day and then suddenly the envelope is ripped up and thrown away police needed to explain the traces of polonium on the second table added soon the clues again lay in Litvinenko's police interview he had another meeting the day he fell ill on Tuesday I have meeting planned with Russian people first person Andrey Lugovoy his former KGB officer he had been bodyguard Prime Minister of Russia the second man captain he has been Soviet Army officer maybe a second left and maybe captain when sasha was in hospital and when we talked about his suspicious he might be poisoned and I said but who who could do this and he mentioned this meeting Chris Lugovoy and Kovtun in Millennium Hotel he has come from the bar and say Sasha I am here he says that he must leave for football match so we will talk for 10-15 minutes and no more on the table there is a few cups and also a teapot I pour some tea from the port for some reason I didn't like it it's almost called tea I drink maybe three or four times and after you drank from the pulp didn't dry or coughed and drink anything from that pouch know for sure the ingestion eating something was important so they were she was cruising on this and it was planing might be definitive in the end he look at his what'd you say my wife is about to come bring his son he said this Uncle session we shake hands and she go [Music] police turn their attention to the hotel in Mayfair where the two suspects stayed Lugovoy and Kovtun were captured on CCTV going upstairs to the gents toilets traces of polonium were found that matched their movements so we'll go with a hypothesis that mr. Logan why mr. Coughlin they had more than something to do with it in the 16th of October mr. Lugovoy mr. Coughlin both came into the country on a BA flight from Moscow they went and stayed in the Best Western Shastri Avenue polonium was found in that room in the bathroom then police made their second breakthrough they discovered Litvinenko had an earlier meeting with Lugovoy and Kovtun two weeks before their afternoon tea at the Millennium the location it's su sushi bar the table where that sat was the one on which police had already detected traces of polonium got contamination because it's not secondary contamination it was primary contamination as in something bad had happened there you tried to wake him in it's a restaurant you tried so he had been attacked on the 16th in fact he had died as a result of the attack on the 16th it was that significant but he was that robust they it didn't work as quickly as it shouldn't know after the it to attack Lugovoy and Kovtun traveled back to Moscow on a Transaero aircraft we managed to stop there at Heathrow Airport that was emotional because they didn't react all that well to that plane being stopped [Music] the aircraft was checked they did find traces of planing 210 in retaliation for interfering with the trans Aero flight the Russian authorities had placed the tugs that pushed the aircraft back from the stands in front of a British Airways jet at Moscow Airport so this kind of tit for tat that started to underpin us on the political dimensions on this investigation I think it turned out that 36,000 people have been on planes that could have been contaminated traces of radiation found at 12 different locations including two British Airways planes in an investigation stretching right across Europe in pursuit of a radioactive trail the number of the scenes that were unraveling on a day-by-day basis went to about 40 old scenes and this had been everything from the hotels that the two key suspects had stayed in two places where they'd had meetings together Litvinenko appeared to have survived the two attack on the 16th of october Lugovoy returned to london alone nine days later detectives believe he flew in armed to kill they found evidence in the Sheraton Park Lane Hotel we came up with this random way of describing how safe or not something could be and they called it a runaway factor their detection devices quote were minging unquote I think that meant it was a huge amount of radiation in that room they'd had to withdraw from the rooms fairly quickly extremely high levels of radiation in the bathroom sink and pipes led police to believe Lugovoy had poured the polonium down the drain it was most nucular scene that has I think has it ever been found in civilian circumstances and the runaway factor there was Usain Bolt esque [Music] Litvinenko had ultimately died as a result of the attack in the Millennium Hotel but this may have been the last of three attempts by Lugovoy and Kovtun to kill him police were desperate to prove conclusively the libman Yenko had died from polonium poisoning eight days after his death Britain's top pathologists finally examined the body the autopsy was a difficult dangerous procedure levels of polonium that were eventually found from the tissues were a hundred fold higher than would be compatible with life [Music] when he opened up all he could see is a trophy of tissue it's essentially sort of just dissolved in a slurry as it were and so it was clear what had been going on the autopsy confirmed Litvinenko's death was a direct result of his ingesting deadly polonium [Music] from fairly early on in the inquiry Andrey Lugovoy and Dmitry Kovtun became people of interest and so that is why we wanted to interview them as soon as possible and that meant sending a team of officers to Moscow to do just that the conversation of Peter they to the section of Bryant RP at the formal setting for the request tops do you fancy going to Russia I think it was in the toilets on the 15th floor in waltz my boss I said hello Clive as you would and his immediate response was our tops my best man what are you doing for the next couple of weeks so was it a natural environment for a challenge sister he said like that di Bryant our pees team had been briefed by mi6 about what to expect in Moscow the thought of having to lead a team in Moscow was at first quite daunting there was the obvious warnings about potential honey traps our rooms might be bugged or searched I had left shall we say certain traps which would indicate to me that my drawers had been moved or searched the team's first meeting was with the Russian general prosecutor [Music] we were welcomed by the deputy ambassador and the general prosecutor I think there were eight objectives eight things that we wish to achieve while we were there the top two of those would be to interview Lugovoy and Kovtun it's then that the conversation became a little more difficult we believed them to be in a place called nuclear hospital number six he was asking what is this nuclear hospital number six or have never heard of it this means nothing to me you know we don't know where they are we have got no idea where they are how do you know nuclear hospital number six was a clinic built to treat the victims of the Chernobyl disaster about five o'clock we received a phone call stating surprisingly he was in hospital number six and this place did exist in less than ten minutes we were in the van the journey there was quite interesting they drove very quickly to start with they didn't seem to know where they were going themselves and we had to on at least two occasions do u-turns to get back out of the area where we were whether this was to delay us getting to the hospital or not I don't know after two hours driving they arrived at the hospital just before 9 p.m. the next point of contention we were told under no circumstances would we be allowed to bring any recording devices with us into the hospital and the interview will conclude by 10 o'clock Kaufman was said to be receiving treatment for exposure to polonium only once Scotland Yard officer was permitted to enter the room it turned out to be a very strange series of events there was a man in a bed who he was told was Dmitry Kovtun the only thing that he could see was the eyes it could have been anyone sat in the bed we'll never know who it was after just 13 minutes the doctor stopped the interview of the questions that we had wanted to be asked only about half were asked before the time ran out so it really wasn't satisfactory from my perspective to put it simply they were messed about that the Russians kept saying we're cooperating that it was unlike any cooperation that I've ever seen the Scotland Yard team had been in Moscow for two days developments in London were about to have an impact on their investigation now it was being treated as a suspicious death but in the last half-hour Scotland Yard have confirmed that they are now treating the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko as murder the intelligence and the critical and the diplomatic dimensions were all firmly intertwined and so from a very early stage there was going to be a certain amount of finger pointing towards Russia right I was concerned about the impact of that change of status to the team in Russia did it pose the challenge most definitely you're interviewing their Nationals and you've seen them as a witness and then suddenly you've announced it's a murder it must have been fairly clear that actually there was a picture was unfolding which I fear the Russian government would not want us to explore but the most or hospitals Kester animalism Politico Google Mozilla II nicodemus professional Norris Lithuania is positive it's Eid magnetronic accord politically company I'm approached Fattah it androgynous animal suggested she provenance alert after six frustrating days of waiting an interview with the second suspect Andrey Lugovoy was cancelled at short notice the Russians also announced the coffins health was declining rapidly hours after giving evidence to investigators in Moscow today mr. Corton reportedly fell into a coma and is in a critical condition from radiation poisoning the investigation had stalled and the team encountered another unexpected problem I remember one evening my officer was complaining of stomach cramp and not being very well early the next morning I was to accompany him back to the general prosecutor's office we were offered tea I had no hesitation in saying yes I have a cup of tea please so I had the cup of tea and we left I started to feel a little uncomfortable and not wanting to put too fine a point on it I had two shits I have no doubt in my mind that we were probably poisoned but something like gastroenteritis I think that there was a deliberate ploy to weaken us physically because we were the we were the decision-makers in the team he didn't stop them doing what they did he just meant they had to do it in short bursts the following date RP and the team were escorted back to hospital number six to interview the second suspect Andrey Lugovoy again we were told that he was a sick patient in the hospital and the interviews would be conducted there we were told that we could not bring any recording devices into the hospital so we were totally reliant on the on the Russians recording this the police were also told the interview would be conducted in Russian because Lugovoy spoke no English when Lugovoy was interviewed he looked as fit as a fiddle he wasn't bandaged and was there in his own clothes and probably had only just turned up at the hospital I suppose I can tell you what I hoped for I hope for an account that could give us an opportunity to prove or disprove what they said I thought that why this has been recorded so we'll get what it is that's been said and we can compare that to the notes that have been taken at the end of the interview Lugovoy car smoked and said good luck with your investigation in English [Music] after two weeks in Moscow the Scotland Yard detectives were ready to return home all the remained was to collect copies of the evidence from the Russian general prosecutor [Music] they agreed that they would just film the evidence been handed to me I was presented with a bundle of interviews and tapes we took the evidence with us back on the flight back to London the Scotland Yard team arrived back in London the following evening I was very glad to be back in the UK and now I was equally glad to be able to hand over the bundle of interviews and tapes the next day Tuppy received a phone call from Scotland Yard forensics it was one of the forensic management team he was asking was there another Lugovoy tape and at first I couldn't understand what he meant by that and I said no I've given you the tapes and I said why I can't remember exactly where I was when I found out from tops that what was probably the most important output from that whole deployment it never made it on a plane the recording of Lugovoy vital interview was missing from the evidence package handed over by the Russian authorities I'd been outmaneuvered like a chess piece by the Russians was an accident he didn't tell me that tops or anyone else had been unprofessional it's ok we've been done one month after his death Alexander Litvinenko his body was still so radioactive it had to be placed in a lead-lined coffin for burial it was not original coffin it was a sum from Neto and they said if we decide one day to take his coffin from grave it would be allowed only after 30 years Alexander Litvinenko was buried in Highgate Cemetery he was 44 years old police believed that Lugovoy and Kovtun had poisoned Litvinenko in the Millennium Hotel Mayfair but after being frustrated in Moscow they still needed to build a cast-iron case by proving how the polonium had been administered this expert advice said that there'll be no trace of polonium left on anything that has been washed for two times the dishwasher don't bother doing the teapots teacups sauces teaspoons because you'll be wasting your time but all the instincts were yet gone let's have a go I came back as a full scale deflection on this teapot full scale deflection so what does that mean it meant that there was a smoking teapot it's not so much a smoking gun by it was significant the contamination in the teapot leads of course inescapably too often and Lugovoy the police had the last piece of the puzzle and handed the evidence over to the Crown Prosecution Service five months later the CPS formally sought the extradition of Lugovoy on a charge of murder our position was that if Lugovoy ork often left the country and went to a jurisdiction where they were extraditable we would seek to extradite them Lugovoy and Kovtun denied the allegations in the Russian media right each is delivered skim film on the caution film producer moon Buscemi Tom Tacoma power in the freedom would polka party Steve nutritive I was REME Britons in December 2007 Lugovoy became a member of Russia's Parliament giving him immunity from prosecution the Home Secretary Theresa May ruled out a public inquiry fearing about damage relations with Russia but finally in 2014 under pressure from the High Court she changed her mind [Music] more than eight years after Litvinenko's death the public inquiry opened at the High Court in London for me it was already like I've done it I'm really satisfied because it was very important to bring information to public Lugovoy and Kovtun poisoned it and you will decide on all of the evidence whether or not they were sponsored by the Russian state some people started to say mmm we're not sure they're going to do anything against Russia and they said they probably will just close this case I'm not going to do anything [Music] finally judge Sir Robert Owen delivered his verdict I have concluded that there is a strong probability that when mr. Lugovoy poisoned mr. livenko he did so under the direction of the FSB I have further concluded that the FSB operation to kill mr. Lippman Enka was probably approved by mr. Khrushchev then head of the FSB and also by President Putin [Music] was very powerful verdict it was named Putin and we've been just like over hampt so huge victory and it's a pretty remarkable victory considering the forces were behind my father's murder it doesn't mean Lugovoy and Kovtun who certain committed this crime going to be sent to the prison but you even you're not in prison but you already punished to wake up and go to sleep to know people knew you are criminal you are murder the investigation had been the most complex dangerous and technically demanding ever undertaken by British law enforcement this was the Metropolitan Police and place in the UK at its best they gave an incredible amount which means a huge amount to me he meant accused him out for marina and I couldn't be more proud of of them he was a real man he was a notable agent he was just a human and a real man is a father as a husband good luck take care of course justice hasn't been done for this extent but when you consider the situation under the circumstances under which my father was murdered it's pretty amazing we got any semblance of justice at all how does this person in your heart you can leave but anyway you heart has a big hole I believe he is able to see everything what happened and I hope his proudest [Music] Maryna now knows her husband's story has been told and if he is disputed within the people that applies to they can happily Bowl up here and have their day in court to explain their story and I'd pick a tail [Music] you

Polonium is a monitored substance by international treaty as it's used in the trigger of nuclear bombs. The only people who could use some are nuclear armed countries that are not signatories to the IAEA. Guess which one that might be.
