Russia 'could try Lugovoy'

Russia's top prosecutor told his British counterpart today that Russia could prosecute the chief suspect in the Alexander Litvinenko killing if Britain presents sufficient evidence, the Interfax news agency reported.

British officials this week said they had enough evidence to charge Russian businessman Andrei Lugovoi in the radioactive poisoning death last year in London of Mr Litvinenko, a former security agent turned fierce Kremlin critic.
