Police in Naples have arrested an Italian who met a former Russian
agent, Alexander Litvinenko the day he fell ill in London from
radiation poisoning.
Mario Sacaramella, who was discharged from University College Hospital
in London earlier this month after testing positive for radioactivity,
was arrested by Italian police as he stepped off a British Airways
plane in Naples.
He had already been under investigation by Italian prosecutors for
alleged arms trafficking, before Mr Litvenenko’s death from radiation
poisoning.
Police said Mr Scaramella, who claims he holds a teaching post at Naples University, will be brought to Rome for interrogation.
