An utterly ridiculous example of a fake news story; this article makes the claim that Vladimir Putin’s passport was found at the scene of the recent poisoning of the former Russian double agent and his daughter in the UK. They were poisoned by a nerve agent that is known to be a Russian made poison; which means it is very likely that Russian was involved, but the idea that Putin himself would be directly related in any way is just so incredibly silly. The article even claimed that Theresa May said “Russia has 24 hours to extradite Vladimir Putin for questioning in London.” as well as “Refusal will be taken as admission of guilt.” If it is somehow unclear, Snopes has fact-checked this story and obviously confirmed it’s fake.
