Complications in the difficult police investigation of Gareth Williams’ death add up:  the £18,000 in one of his bank accounts that disappeared two months ago, the sudden appearance and disappearance of three £2,000 in his bank account in the weeks before his death, lack of help from MI6, the two bundles of cash £500 (one in an envelope and one bound with an elastic) both found in his London flat, and the extent of work Williams had done as a cipher and codes specialist.

The cause of Williams’ death is still pending as autopsy report is still going to be released next week.

Scotland Yard regards the angle that Williams was gay as “garbage”.

Williams, 31, was a genius who cracked the Taliban’s codes.  He oversaw Echelon, a network that links satellites and super-computers in Britain and US with those of other allies.  Echelon eavesdrops on suspects of terrorism, drug dealers and searches for other political and diplomatic intelligence.  It intercepts five billion forms of communications a day.

The death of Williams hampers GCHQ’s thrust to go into Voice Over Internet Protocol.

Williams came up with the discovery that insurgents use “big wedding”, “getting married” and “birthday party” to set up attacks.
