Sergei Skripal’s monthly meeting with his former handler

The former Russian double agent poisoned with a nerve agent in Salisbury met his former handler from MI6 every month in a local restaurant.
Sergei Skripal was said to have spoken to the former intelligence officer in English and Russian and they also discussed his business in Poland. It raises the question of whether Mr Skripal, who was jailed for passing Russian secrets to MI6 but later given refuge in the UK in a spy swap, was involved in active intelligence work.
