| Description | KIEV, Ukraine - Ukrainian prosecutors Sunday reopened their investigation into allegations Viktor Yushchenko was poisoned after doctors treating the opposition leader confirmed he had been slipped the toxic chemical dioxin.
Yushchenko returned home to campaign for this month's presidential runoff vote. He said he did not want the poisoning issue to overshadow the Dec. 26 election, but the director of Vienna's elite Rudolfiner clinic said a potential criminal case could be involved.
"We are not dealing with simple pimples, we are dealing with a poisoning and the suspicion of third-party involvement," Dr. Michael Zimpfer said, referring to the disfigurement of Yushchenko's face.
