Poison sent to Trump, confiscated by U.S. officials before arriving at the White House

Washington, Ta. Sunday 20 September 2020

A suspicious packet sent to US President Donald Trump has confirmed the poisoning. Law enforcement officers examined a packet earlier this week that confirmed a poison called ricin.

Two tests have been performed to confirm the poisoning. A U.S. law enforcement official said the package may have been sent to the U.S. from Canada. The case is under investigation.

According to US officials, any letter or parcel reaching the White House is thoroughly investigated before it reaches the President. What is suspected is isolated. Investigators have described Risin as a "deadly poison." Resin is a very lethal ingredient extracted from castor beans.

It is used in terrorist attacks as well as as a powder, smoke, pill or acid. If this toxin enters one's body, it causes internal bleeding in addition to inflammation in the stomach and intestines. It also causes death.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Secret Service are investigating the case. "The FBI and our Secret Service and the US Postal Inspection Service are investigating the case together," an FBI official said. At present there is no doubt of any kind of danger to the common people.

"We are aware of reports regarding the packet," said Mary-Liz Power, Canada's chief public safety spokeswoman, in a statement. The Canadian Law Enforcement Agency is working closely with US counterparts. An investigation is still ongoing so cannot be commented at this time.
