Probe into envoy's death fall 'blocked'

Benedict Moore-Bridger
11 Dec 2008


THE Pakistan High Commission has been accused of blocking efforts to investigate the death of a military diplomat.

Munir Ahmed, 47, fell 40ft from a lavatory window of the building in London on 18 July. The post-mortem found only an "insignificant" amount of the painkiller codeine in his blood.

But Westminster coroner Dr Paul Knapman yesterday recorded an open verdict. He said: "There was no co-operation and no full inquiry has been pursued."

The High Commission refused to comment.
