LONDON, November 24 (RIA Novosti) - A large dose of polonium-210, a radioactive isotope, has been discovered in the body of a Russian former spy who died in London, representatives of the British Health Protection Agency said Friday.
Alexander Litvinenko, a former Russian intelligence officer and a close associate of Russia's fugitive oligarch Boris Berezovsky, was admitted to a London hospital three weeks ago and initially diagnosed with acute poisoning.
Western media have circulated the deathbed note of Litvinenko, known as a fierce Kremlin critic, in which he accused Vladimir Putin of orchestrating his death.
