Doctors: Yushchenko Poisoned With Dioxin

VIENNA, Austria (AP) - The mysterious illness of Ukrainian opposition leader and presidential candidate Viktor Yushchenko was caused by dioxin poisoning that was likely intentional, doctors said Saturday.

``There is no doubt about the fact that Mr. Yushchenko's disease has been caused by a case of poisoning by dioxin,'' said Dr. Michael Zimpfer, director of Vienna's private Rudolfinerhaus clinic.

Zimpfer said Yushchenko's blood and tissue registered concentrations of dioxin 1,000 times above normal levels.

``It would be quite easy to administer this amount in a soup,'' Zimpfer said, adding that tests showed the dioxin was taken orally. ``The criminal investigation does not fit within our purview but ... there is suspicion of third-party involvement.''
