 * ''Discussion on Craig Murray's blog:

WHO ARE THE PEOPLE ON THE CCTV VIDEO?

A video came out on March 6, showing an older man and a younger woman walking towards the park bench where the Skripals were found some 15 minutes later. Shots from the video were shown on TV news worldwide. At first the people were said to be “persons of interests” or suspects. Later everyone somehow assumed they were the Skripals. But they are not! Yulia had red hair when she left Moscow. The woman on the video is blond. Did British authorities ever confirm who they think is on the video? Or did they tell people not to look? If so, who could it possibly be that should not be named? Pablo Miller, perhaps.

I reconstructed the information from Pablo Millers deleted LinkedIn profile using Google search and posted it and other material on him on our research site “A Closer Look On Syria”. I also managed to retrieve two photographs from his LinkedIn profile that I believe portray him. A friend suggested that the gray haired man standing in front of a tank in Miller’s photo has a strong resemblance to the man on the CCTV video.

 * If it the blond and bloke they are certainly not the Skripals


 * But


 * ''“Witness Freya Church, 27, who later spotted the pair ‘slumped’ and ‘passed out’ on the bench, said the couple pictured in the CCTV images released today were ‘100%’ the people she saw slumped on the bench on Sunday.”

 * So this strengthens my suspicion that the people on the bench were not the Skripals

 * '''The Red Handbag
 * '''The Red Handbag


 * Charles, that’s an interesting theory. Sometimes the earlier newspaper reports have revealing details in them because they haven’t got their stories straight yet. In the Sun on 8th March, they refer to a red handbag beside the bench as Yulia’s. “Chilling first pics of poison scene appear to show Russian spy’s daughter’s red handbag abandoned next to bench”.


 * They also show the CCTV pictures you mention with the blonde woman carrying a red handbag. As you say, the Sun originally thought that Yulia was the woman in the CCTV pictures but we now know that’s not true. Either both women happened to be carrying similar sized red handbags that day (which is actually not very likely – have a look next time you’re on a high street, you won’t see many red handbags) or, the red handbag abandoned next to the bench does indeed belong to the blonde woman in the CCTV.


 * If the picture of Pablo Miller which Petri identified is accurate, then the man in the CCTV could plausibly be him – they look similar enough to be the same person.


 * There are a couple of explanations which may (or may not) be related to the above:
 * 1.) Pablo Miller and a blonde companion posed as the Skripals on the bench.
 * 2.) The couple on the bench were indeed the Skripals but Pablo Miller and his blonde companion met them there and the woman left behind the handbag either by accident, or as false evidence (i.e. pretending it was Yulia’s and planting some sort of evidence).


 * Explanations which the MSM would prefer, but crucially haven’t reported (which makes me think they can’t be true) are:
 * 3.) The couple are innocent bystanders and the red handbag is actually a red herring.
 * 4.) The couple are still suspects and the red handbag is a key piece of evidence.

Given the timing and all the details of the first eyewitnesses’ accounts and given the influence of the post-event information on eyewitness memory, it is reasonable to say that there is no ground for the theory that the pair on the bench were the CCTV couple. Being groundless, this “theory” is just a fantasy.

 * Some alleged a similarity between Rowley and Sturgess and the couple on CCTV https://skwawkbox.org/2018/07/13/cctv-12-days-when-police-failed-to-find-novichok-bottle-and-the-questions-no-msm-are-asking/
 * Don't think he looks like Rowley and he is well dressed, not sure about the woman.
