Alexander Litvinenko’s widow Marina calls for Vladimir Putin travel ban

Alexander Litvinenko’s wife Marina has called on British prime minister David Cameron to impose economic sanctions and travel bans on Russian president Vladimir Putin.

She also said she wanted to see the immediate expulsion of all Russian intelligence operatives based at the London embassy.

“I’m of course very pleased that the words my husband spoke on his deathbed when he accused Mr Putin of his murder have been proved true in an English court with the high standards of independence and fairness,” she said while speaking at Matrix Law Chambers in central London.
