KGB Killing- Who Poisoned Alexander Litvinenko- (True Crime Documentary)

The poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko is a highly controversial and complex case that has been the subject of much speculation and investigation since it occurred in 2006.

Alexander Litvinenko was a former officer of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) who had defected to the United Kingdom in 2000. He was an outspoken critic of the Russian government, and had been highly critical of Russian President Vladimir Putin and the FSB.

On November 1, 2006, Litvinenko became ill and was admitted to a hospital in London. He died on November 23, 2006, and an autopsy revealed that he had been poisoned with polonium-210, a highly radioactive substance.

The investigation into Litvinenko's death has been highly controversial, with accusations and counter-accusations flying between the British and Russian governments. In 2016, a public inquiry concluded that Litvinenko's death was the result of a "state-sponsored assassination" by the Russian Federal Security Service, with the approval of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The inquiry found that the assassination was carried out by two Russian agents, Andrei Lugovoi and Dmitry Kovtun, who had met with Litvinenko at a London hotel on the day of his poisoning. It also found that the assassination was likely ordered by the FSB and approved by Putin.

However, Russia has denied any involvement in the poisoning, and Lugovoi and Kovtun have never been extradited to the UK to face charges. The case remains a highly controversial and disputed one, with no definitive answers as to who was responsible for the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko.
