In the British village of Longworth, the former British weapons expert David Kelly will be buried today. Kelly died three weeks ago amidst a growing scandal in Britain when it was revealed that he may have been the high level British official who told the BBC that the Blair administration had sexed up intelligence on Iraq. Officials say Kelly committed suicide on July 19, days after coming under intense questions by members of Parliament. Kelly’s comments to the BBC and his death has been front-page news in Britain for weeks. Some questions arose over his death last week when it emerged that he was wearing four electrode pads at the time of his death. Health officials said he was undergoing tests on his heart.
