Sergei Viktorovich Skripal (Russian: Серге́й Ви́кторович Скрипаль, born 23 June 1951) is a former Russian army officer who was poisoned in 2018 in the United Kingdom.

Skripal changed his allegiance and agreed to spy on Russia for the United Kingdom in the 1990s. He was discovered, prosecuted, and imprisoned, but left Russia in 2010 after a long period of imprisonment as part of a spy swap [OZ: with Anna Chapman & Co].

In early March 2018 Skripal and his daughter Yulia, who was visiting from Moscow, were poisoned in an attempted murder using a nerve agent, leaving them critically ill [...] A police officer, who was the first to attend, has been left in a serious condition in Salisbury District Hospital.
[...]
At the time of the prisoner swap, Vladimir Putin, the then and current President of Russia, said in a televised interview: "Traitors will kick the bucket. Trust me. These people betrayed their friends, their brothers in arms. Whatever they got in exchange for it, those 30 pieces of silver they were given, they will choke on them."[15]
[...]
Skripal's [...] son died on a visit to St Petersburg in 2017
