LA Times said two airplanes had traces of radiation. Also the sushi place that he met a former Italian spy at and the mansion of one of his friends, who is also supposedly an enemy to several Russian figures. The radiation could have been passed by spraying it on his food. Two Russian businesspeople he met earlier in the day did not seem to be suspects but had traces of radiation on them. The radiation can easily be passed even with a handshake or touching clothes. When he was meeting the former Italian spy, he was telling him how they were both on a Russian hit list. British spokespeople though are considering many options, not just Putin. The main motive might have something to do with information on the Russian journalist who was killed. There are many leads as there are cameras all over London to prevent terrorism.

Russia claims to be cooperating, says the police will not be hampered in any way. Britain is trying to track all passengers from the past 5 weeks on 4 planes (the planes checked positive for radiation...) They're trying to get access to a 5th plane. There is some concern that a former Russian prime minister was also poisoned (in Ireland) and that the 2 cases are related. Before he died, the ex KGB guy accused Putin of ordering the poisoning...
