On Thursday a Coroners Court in London will decide on the legal framework for the inquest into the 2006 poisoning of my friend, former Russian security officer Alexander Litvinenko. Should it be a narrow inquiry, as if Litvinenko's were just an ordinary murder? Or it be a full investigation of the motives and identity of the party that sent the perpetrators on their mission with a vial of radioactive polonium-210? Alexander's widow, Marina, will press for a comprehensive inquiry. The Coroner reportedly prefers a limited inquest.
