I like how Russia claims they are Civilians just doing a 9-5 job...I guess Novichok is just a cleaning agent over there.

Two Russian spies were arrested in March on their way to break in to the Swiss chemical weapons laboratory that was analysing the nerve agent used in the Salisbury attack, it has been revealed.

The Russian GRU military intelligence agents were intercepted in the Netherlands while on their way to Switzerland, where investigators believe they were targeting the Spiez laboratory. They were expelled from the country.

The arrests followed a joint operation by the British and Dutch secret services working with the Swiss intelligence, the Nachrichtendienst des Bundes (NDB).

They were equipped with hacking equipment which would have been able to break into the computer network of the laboratory, the country’s institute working on protection against nuclear, biological and chemical threats.

It is the designated lab for the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW).

At the time of the arrest, Spiez was investigating poison gas attacks by the Assad regime in Syria and the attack on Sergei Skripal and his daughter in Salisbury.

The Swiss NDB has confirmed the “case of the Russian spies discovered in The Hague and then expelled”.

We went to Salisbury because or friends told us it was a fine city and had a lovely cathedral... it was until you used a nerve agent there.


RIP Dawn...

They were just checking out the local cathedral and got a bit lost. Happens all the time!

Interestingly, the Russians are having difficulty in believing the poisoners' stories.

The bizarre account by two suspected Russian hitmen of an innocent tourist trip to Salisbury may have been met with predictable derision in Britain but Russian reaction has shown that even Moscow is struggling to find the story credible.
Maria Zakharova, the Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman, admitted that their version of events may have raised more questions than it answered.

More developments here - apparently the plane tickets were purchased at the last minute contradicting the defendants' long-planned vacation statement, a passport information dossier has a defence ministry phone number on it and the office issuing it normally only isssues passports for certain government roles.
