Skripal suspects: Reaction to TV interview

The two suspects in the Salisbury poisoning attack have denied they were Russian agents

Sergei Brilev, deputy director of the state-owned Russian television channel Rossiya 1, says he doubts that the two suspects in the Salisbury attack were Russian agents. Mr Brilev says the way they dressed and spoke in an interview on the state-run news channel Russia Today does not fit with what he typically knows about Russia's secret services.
