A former Royal Marine charged with assisting the Hong Kong intelligence service has been found dead, police have said.

Matthew Trickett, 37, a Home Office immigration officer, appeared in court charged under the National Security Act last week.

His death is being treated as unexplained and a post-mortem examination will be carried out in due course, the force added.
