Nov 2006, GE on Newsworld; 3m47s
Alexander Litvinenko, an ex-KGB agent, was murdered in London, England, by an assassin who mixed polonium-210 in tea. It took doctors weeks to find the cause of the ghastly symptoms leading to Litvinenko’s death over a period of about a month. Gordon Edwards is interviewed on Newsworld to cast some light on this deadly radioactive element, first identified by Marie Curie.
