Poisoned Sergei Skripal kept ties to Russian intelligence, fellow exile claims
The Russian double agent fighting for his life after a suspected nerve agent attack had ties to spymasters from the country he betrayed, it has been claimed.
Fellow Russian exile Valery Morozov said he met Sergei Skripal several times, but alleges the former colonel had not left his life in espionage behind.
Mr Skripal was convicted in his home country for selling secrets to the British.
He was freed in an exchange of captured spies between the US and Russia in 2010.
Mr Morozov told Channel 4 News that, despite his high-profile defection, the poisoned intelligence officer visited the Russian Embassy regularly.
