"On Wednesday, July 11, a small bottle was found during a search of Charlie Rowley's home in Amesbury," a police statement said. "Scientists have now confirmed to us that the substance in the bottle was Novitsok."

The announcement states that further scientific checks will now be carried out to determine whether the Novitsok contained in the vial was from the same lot used against the Skripals four months earlier.

The same neurotoxic agent was used in the attack against former Russian agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter in March.
