Russian Ex-Spy Skripal Under Close Medical Supervision After Health Worsens - Reports

MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 18th February, 2019) Russian ex-spy Sergei Skripal has suffered deterioration in his health and is being treated by doctors at home amid fears that he may never fully recover from poisoning, media reported citing an intelligence source.

"His health has got worse and he's been receiving medical care at his home.

No one has any idea of what will happen to him because there's very little that's known about the impact the nerve agent will have in the long run," the source told the Sunday Times.

Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were found unconscious on a bench at a shopping center in the UK city of Salisbury in March last year.

The United Kingdom has accused Moscow of orchestrating the attack with what UK experts claimed was the A234 nerve agent. Moscow has refuted the allegations and repeatedly pointed to the lack of evidence provided by London.
