I like their use of the word "Allegedly". There is nothing alleged about his poisoning, it happened!
Who did it is another matter.

I think the use of poison makes a point. While no one's admitting to the assassination, everyone pretty much knows its the KGB m.o. to use poisons.
The dissident former Russian spy who accused Vladimir Putin of having him poisoned was killed by a massive dose of a deadly radioactive element, it was disclosed today.
A large quantity of alpha radiation from polonium 210 was detected in Alexander Litvinenko’s urine, apparently just a few hours prior to his death in University College Hospital last night.
Tonight it emerged that experts had discovered traces of radiation at the two premises – a hotel and sushi bar – which Mr Litvinenko visited on November 1, the day he fell ill.
