#  Kelly inquest to reopen?

 Written by S Johnson on 18 December 2009.

The UK seems to be going through soul-searching on the causes of the Iraq war as the Commission engaged to look into the causes of the war gets going. Doctors are concerned that Dr David Kelly, head of microbiology at DSTL, did not commit suicide and that the cuts on his wrist, and the amount of co-proxamol in his blood warrant further investigation.
