Full Novichok inquiry plea

THE family of Novichok victim Dawn Sturgess are taking High Court action to get the scope of the mum’s inquest widened.

They want it to consider matters including the source of the nerve agent.

It came after Wiltshire coroner David Ridley put limits on the hearing.

Dawn died in Salisbury in 2018 after contact with the poison weeks after former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and daughter Yulia survived an attack there.

The hearing continues.
