Poisoning creature

The 54-year-old ex-agent of the FSB under the cord name Gordon is suspected of poisoning Sergei and Julia Skripaley, reports The Sunday Mirror. According to the British special services, in total, six people were involved in the operation to eliminate the ex-colonel of the GRU in Salisbury, the newspaper writes.

Gordon uses a passport in the name of Mikhail Savitskis and impersonates the owner of a successful security business. It is known about his two more fictional names. It is alleged that the agent was in the "active reserve" of Russian special services to carry out special operations, including murders.

The defector Boris Karpichkov (the name is also fictitious), a former KGB major in Latvia, pointed to Gordon. According to Karpichkov, in the early 90s Gordon, a graduate of the Jourfacu University of Riga and Master Jiu-Jitsu, was his subordinate. What name he bore at that time is not specified. The ex-agent said that Gordon personally shot the leader of the Latvian criminal group.

According to Karpichkov, Gordon was sentenced to liquidation for issuing one of the FSB intelligence services to the Latvian intelligence services. To poison Gordon allegedly was entrusted to Karpichkov himself, but he refused. Why in the future the order was canceled and how Gordon returned trust, the publication is not explained.

Kirpichkov himself escaped in 1998 and received British citizenship twelve years later. The Sunday Mirror writes that during this period attempts were made twice on the territory of New Zealand. Karpichkov claims to be inthe "liquidation list" of the Russian special services .

Karpichkov describes Gordon as a smart, educated, ambitious and ruthless person. According to him, Gordon is handsome and quickly enters into confidence in people. The defector believes that Gordon was the eldest in the group, which was entrusted with the murder of Skripal.

On Monday, British police officers interviewed Karpichkov as part of the investigation of the Skripal case. He was asked if he was telling him something Savitskis. According to Karpichkov, at the first moment he did not understand who we were talking about. “Then I came home, checked with my records and realized that this is a killer,” the defector said. “I am a loyal British citizen and glad to help the authorities than I can.”

On Saturday, The Telegraph wrote that the Skripals suspects are established and located in Russia . Their number was not reported.
