An investigation commission of the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliament, investigating the poisoning of Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko with dioxin, has declared there is a probability that there has been more falsification of the case, with the participation of Yuschenko, according to the commission press service.
According to a statement, “during September 2009 the commission
received several letters from famous toxicologists, who have
confidential information on secret experiments to determine the dose of
dioxin safe for human beings. The purpose of similar false experiments
is to inject Yuschenko with the dose to foil the case investigation.”
Due to this, the commission said that “if this is falsification, it
will find any possible ways to detect it, as modern toxicology is able
to exactly determine if the 5% of dioxin in Yushchenko’ body was a
remnant [of the initial poisoning] or just injected.”
As reported, on September 5, 2004, then presidential candidate
Viktor Yushchenko was taken ill after having dinner with the leadership
of the Security Service of Ukraine. He was hospitalized in Vienna on
September 10. Doctors said Yuschenko had been poisoned with dioxin.
Moreover, they said the poison had been administered five days before
his hospitalization.
After that, a number of medical tests were conducted. An examination
conducted late in May 2006 confirmed the presence of dioxin in
Yuschenko’s body.
