A top US scientist Bruce Ivins, 62 suspected of anthrax attacks in 2001 has died from an apparent suicide as the Justice Department was about to charge him with carrying out the attacks by an overdose of painkillers.
The anthrax was sent through the mail to media and politicians shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks. The attacks killed five people, crippled national mail service, shut down a Senate office building and spread fear of further terrorism.
He had helped the FBI investigate anthrax-tainted envelopes as a microbiologist for a government laboratory.
