LONDON (AP) ? A British lawyer says previously unreleased details of the British investigation into the murder of ex-Russian agent Alexander Litvinenko may be made public during an inquest into his death.
This would include surveillance footage, medical records and transcripts of witness interviews ? offering a glimpse into the workings of a murder investigation that was full of international intrigue.
Litvinenko died in 2006 after ingesting polonium, a rare radioactive poison. The former Russian FSB agent blamed the Kremlin for his death, and the killing took relations between Moscow and London to a post-Cold War low.
Lawyer Hugh Davies spoke Friday at a preliminary hearing ahead of an inquest into Litvinenko's death. In Britain, inquests are held following unexplained or violent deaths. Litvinenko's is set to begin early in 2013.
