On August 23, 2010, police conducted a welfare check at 31-year-old Gareth Williams's flat in Pimlico, London

On August 23, 2010, police conducted a welfare check at 31-year-old Gareth Williams's flat in Pimlico, London, after colleagues reported he had been out of contact for several days. Williams was a Welsh mathematician and codebreaker working for GCHQ on secondment to MI6. Officers discovered his naked, decomposing body inside a red North Face holdall in the bathtub. The bag was padlocked from the outside, with the keys found inside.



An expert investigator later attempted to lock himself inside an identical bag more than 300 times and failed every time, stating "not even Houdini" could have done it. No fingerprints or footprints were found in the bathroom. The flat's central heating had been set on full despite it being midsummer, accelerating decomposition and preventing toxicology results.


In 2012, the coroner ruled Williams's death was "unnatural and likely to have been criminally mediated." However, a subsequent Metropolitan Police investigation concluded his death was "probably an accident." A 2021 forensic review found no new DNA evidence. 

The case remains officially unsolved, with Williams's family maintaining he was murdered.
