Another source is confirming the value of the Polonium-210 that killed Litvinenko was in the tens of millions: German investigators say the radioactive polonium-210 used to kill a former Russian spy in London last month would have cost $25 million on the black market. The Berliner Zeitung quoted a police source Wednesday as saying police […]

Two new clues have emerged in the puzzle that is the Litvinenko incident.

Update: I agree with readers here that the German police were thorough and complete and were able to resolve Kovtun’s travels and the contamination trail much faster than their British counterparts – unless the media is being spun by UK authorities. The German authorities are being very pragmatic and they too note that Kovtun probably […]

We have to keep in mind the three previous rounds of contamination at London hotels on Oct 16th (which Kovtun was present at) and Oct 28th and finally Oct 31st-Nov 1, when Litvinenko was fatally exposed. In all three of these cases Lugovoi flew to London and met many times with Litvinenko. And we have […]
