The death of a British woman in the Salisbury Novichok poisonings to be investigated .  This as a new public inquiry into the incident opens this morning in Salisbury, 14 October 2024, to examine the 2018 poisoning of Dawn Sturgess

Dawn Sturgess, 44, died after exposed to the chemical weapon left in a discarded perfume bottle in Amesbury, Wiltshire, in July 2018.

The perfume bottle was sealed in hard plastic and boyfriend Charlie Rowley said he had to use a kitchen knife to get to it.  Perfume disguised as ‘Premier Jour’.

Dawn sprayed what was inside the bottle on her wrists, rubbing them together.  Within 15 minutes, she was fitting and foaming at the mouth.  Dawn later died in hospital.

It followed the attempted murder of former spy Sergei Skripal, 71, his daughter Yulia, 39.  Also police officer Nick Bailey, poisoned in nearby Salisbury in March that year.

They fell seriously ill when members of a Russian military intelligence squad believed to have smeared the nerve agent on Mr Skripal’s door handle.

All three survived, as did Ms Sturgess’s boyfriend Charlie Rowley.  Charlie had unwittingly given Dawn the bottle containing the killer nerve agent after finding it abandoned, believing it to be perfume.

Russia denies any involvement and described the inquiry as a “circus”
