The Weapon
Scotland Yard's Final Assessment:
* A poison pellet entered Markov's body through the small hole found in his trousers.
* The fabric wasn't burned, as it would be with a gunshot, suggesting an air gun.
* Markov described being approached by a man with an umbrella.
* Conclusion: Georgi Markov was assassinated by an air gun disguised as an umbrella. |
