Viktoria Skripal, the niece of the poisoned former double agent Sergei Skripal, has been denied a British visa to visit her relatives in hospital, the Home Office has confirmed.
The Russian national had planned to travel to Britain to take Sergei's daughter Yulia back to their home country.

Mr Skripal and his 33-year-old daughter Yulia are being treated in an English hospital after being found unconscious on March 4 on a public bench in Salisbury after an attack with a nerve agent, but both are recovering and are no longer in critical condition.

A Home Office spokesman said: "We have refused a visitor visa application from Viktoria Skripal on the grounds that her application did not comply with the Immigration Rules."

The news comes after a Russian TV station broadcast a conversation between a recovering Yulia Skripal and her cousin Viktoria on Wednesday evening, in which she said her and her father’s health was improving.
