I remember it well.

It's funny how a man who needed help tying his shoe laces, managed to hang himself with a length of electrical flex. Interesting book on the subject here, and his son speaks about it here *

*I didn't post the first youtube vid because Ernst Zundle does the intro, and I didn't want to be accused of 'Revisionism'.
God knows, It would be 'less bad' to be accused of drug dealing, or kiddy fiddling.

it was always claimed that the British were not blocking his release but the russians. apparently they were to release him when he 'commited suicide' .
in 2026 the British will open their files on him, presumably enough time will have passed by then.
