Sir Robert Owen is the former High Court Judge who was appointed Coroner at the 2013 Inquest into the 2006 death of Alexander Litvinenko, chaired the 2014 Litvinenko Inquiry and published his Inquiry Report on 21 January 2016.[1]
Sir Robert Owen's conclusions (that he was "sure" Litvinenko's murder had been carried out by Andrei Lugovoi and Dmitry Kovtun, and that the two Russians were "probably" acting under the direction of Moscow's FSB intelligence service and with the approval of the FSB's Nikolai Patrushev and President Vladimir Putin) have been described as an "untrustworthy verdict".[2][3]
