Russian experts say that Arafat was not poisoned by radiation

Experts rule out Arafat radiation http://www.skynews.com.au/world/article.aspx?id=937252 December 26, 2013 Russian forensic experts say Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat died a natural death, ruling out radiation poisoning.

‘We have completed all the studies,’ Vladimir Uiba, the head of Russia’s Federal Medical-Biological Agency, said on Thursday. ‘The person died a natural death and not from radiation,’ Uiba was quoted as saying by the state RIA Novosti news agency.

Arafat’s exhumed remains have been studied by Swiss, French and Russian experts. The French also ruled out poisoning, but the Swiss report said high levels of radioactive polonium indicated third-party involvement in Arafat’s 2004 death.
