[lbo-talk] "Of Course"

“Claims have been made to the effect that Mr. Litvinenko had contact  
with the British intelligence service before his death. As part of its  
investigation, the Metropolitan Police Service made an inquiry into  
these claims,” Mr. Davies said. But, while efforts were made to  
determine whether those details could be disclosed, details of any  
contacts had “been redacted from the report at the request of Her  
Majesty’s Government.”

“This redaction, of course, should not be taken as indicating one way  
or the other whether Mr. Litvinenko did indeed have any such contact,”  
Mr. Davies said.
