Marina Litvinenko suspects Lugovoj and Kovtun of poisoning her husband
The widow of Alexander Litvinenko has thanked the British investigators who returned yesterday from Moscow for their investigation into the death of her husband.
She also accused Russian authorities of concealing Dmitri Kovtun and Andrei Lugovoj at hospital "under the pretext of radiation" in order not to admit their interrogation, the AFP informs. "I think these two are sooner suspects than witnesses," Marina Litvinenko asserts.
In her interview to the "Commersant" Marina Litvinenko recalled that doctors had failed for long to diagnose her husband. The family learned that it was poisoning with polonium soon after the death of the former FSB officer. Marina Litvinenko reported that the analysis results appeared three hours before Alexander Litvinenko's death, the "Gazeta.Ru" informs.
