Matthew Trickett, 37, who was charged with surveillance of activists, was found on Sunday evening in Maidenhead park

A former Royal Marine commando who was charged with spying for the Hong Kong intelligence service has died, police have said.

Matthew Trickett, 37, who was on bail, was found by a member of the public in a park near where he lived in Maidenhead, Berkshire.

Thames Valley police said officers attended and administered emergency treatment but he was pronounced dead at the scene in Grenfell Park on Sunday. The force said: “An investigation is ongoing into the death, which is currently being treated as unexplained.”

Trickett appeared in court along with two other men last week accused of monitoring, surveillance and harassment of pro-democracy activists in the UK.

    OK so Putin met with Kim Jung Un last year. He met with Xi Jinping yesterday. The article is about someone spying for Hong Kong which is in China. I must be missing something, the article didn’t mention Hong Kong?
