The British police sought to investigate the death of Alexander V. Litvinenko, a former Russian KGB agent, said a British official on Sunday.
"British policemen have gone as far as saying no more than this is a suspicious death that they are investigating and they have ruled out no option," said John Reid, the Home Secretary and Britain's most senior law enforcement official.
He added that his concern was for those members of the public who may have come into contact with Litvinenko.
"I think it's known that the particular nature of these circumstances don't appear to have happened before. That's why we're doing everything we can on the health side as well as the police side to get as much information to people as we can," he said.
