now inactive. A press report on it should be appearing in Europe later
today. That's all we know until birdie dumps more.

Directory of MI6 Officers
The first step to bringing accountability to MI6 is to publish the names
of their officers. Every other branch of British public service
publishes an annual directory of their officers. The Army has the Army
list, the Police the Constabulary list etc. But MI6 publishes no such
list. Why? Because they do not want their officers to be held
accountable for their actions.
MI6 whine that the publication of such a list would "endanger the lives
of agents". This is a smokescreen. Any member of the UK armed forces or
the police faces far greater physical danger in the course of his normal
duty than an MI6 officer, yet their names are published because they are
legally accountable. So why not MI6 too?
Below is a partial list. It is not yet complete, but further names will
be added as they are researched.

MI6 and the Princess of Wales
Attached below is a sworn and testified statement that I have made on
12th May 1999 to the enquiry into the deaths of the Princess of Wales,
Dodi Al Fayed, and Henri Paul. I firmly believe that MI6 have
information in their files that would assist Judge Stephan's enquiry.
Why don't they yield up this information? They should not be entitled to
use the Official Secrets Act to protect themselves from investigation
into the deaths of three people, particularly in the case of an incident
of this magnitude and historical importance.
I, Richard John Charles Tomlinson, former MI6 officer, of Geneva,
Switzerland hereby declare:
1.I firmly believe that there exist documents held by the British Secret
Intelligence Service (MI6) that would yield important new evidence into
the cause and circumstances leading to the deaths of the Princess of
Wales, Mr Dodi Al Fayed, and M. Henri Paul in Paris in August 1997.
2.I was employed by MI6 between September 1991 and April 1995. During
that time, I saw various documents that I believe would provide new
evidence and new leads into the investigation into these deaths. I also
heard various rumours – which though I was not able to see supporting
documents – I am confident were based on solid fact.
3.In 1992, I was working in the Eastern European Controllerate of MI6
and I was peripherally involved in a large and complicated operation to
smuggle advanced Soviet weaponry out of the then disintegrating and
disorganised remnants of the Soviet Union. During 1992, I spent several
days reading the substantial files on this operation. These files
contain a wide miscellany of contact notes, telegrams, intelligence
reports, photographs etc, from which it was possible to build up a
detailed understanding of the operation. The operation involved a large
cast of officers and agents of MI6. One more than one occasion, meetings
between various figures in the operation took place at the Ritz Hotel,
Place de Vendome, Paris. There were in the file several intelligence
reports on these meetings, which had been written by one of the MI6
officers based in Paris at the time (identified in the file only by a
coded designation). The source of the information was an informant in
the Ritz Hotel, who again was identified in the files only by a code
number. The MI6 officer paid the informant in cash for his information.
I became curious to learn more about the identity of this particular
informant, because his number cropped up several times and he seemed to
have extremely good access to the goings on in the Ritz Hotel. I
therefore ordered this informant’s personal file from MI6’s central file
registry. When I read this new file, I was not at all surprised to learn
that the informant was a security officer of the Ritz Hotel.
Intelligence services always target the security officer’s of important
hotels because they have such good access to intelligence. I remember,
however, being mildly surprised that the nationality of this informant
was French, and this stuck in my memory, because it is rare that MI6
succeeds in recruiting a French informer. I cannot claim that I remember
from this reading of the file that the name of this person was Henri
Paul, but I have no doubt with the benefit of hindsight that this was
he. Although I did not subsequently come across Henri Paul again during
my time in MI6, I am confident that the relationship between he and MI6
would have continued until his death, because MI6 would never willingly
relinquish control over such a well placed informant. I am sure that the
personal file of Henri Paul will therefore contain notes of meetings
between him and his MI6 controlling officer right up until the point of
his death. I firmly believe that these files will contain evidence of
crucial importance to the circumstances and causes of the incident that
killed M. Paul, together with the Princess of Wales and Dodi Al Fayed.
4.The most senior undeclared officer in the local MI6 station would
normally control an informant of M.Paul’s usefulness and seniority.
Officers declared to the local counter-intelligence service (in this
case the Directorate de Surveillance Territoire, or DST) would not be
used to control such an informant, because it might lead to the identity
of the informant becoming known to the local intelligence services. In
Paris at the time of M. Paul’s death, there were two relatively
experienced but undeclared MI6 officers. The first was Mr Nicholas John
Andrew LANGMAN, born 1960. The second was Mr Richard David SPEARMAN,
again born in 1960. I firmly believe that either one or both of these
officers will be well acquainted with M Paul, and most probably also met
M. Paul shortly before his death. I believe that either or both of these
officers will have knowledge that will be of crucial importance in
establishing the sequence of events leading up to the deaths of M.Paul,
Dodi Al Fayed and the Princess of Wales. Mr Spearman in particular was
an extremely well connected and influential officer, because he had
been, prior to his appointment in Paris, the personal secretary to the
Chief of MI6 Mr David SPEDDING. As such, he would have been privy to
even the most confidential of MI6 operations. I believe that there may
well be significance in the fact that Mr Spearman was posted to Paris in
the month immediately before the deaths.
5.Later in 1992, as the civil war in the former Yugoslavia became
increasingly topical, I started to work primarily on operations in
Serbia. During this time, I became acquainted with Dr Nicholas Bernard
Frank FISHWICK, born 1958, the MI6 officer who at the time was in charge
of planning Balkan operations. During one meeting with Dr Fishwick, he
casually showed to me a three-page document that on closer inspection
turned out to be an outline plan to assassinate the Serbian leader
President Slobodan Milosevic. The plan was fully typed, and attached to
a yellow "minute board", signifying that this was a formal and
accountable document. It will therefore still be in existence. Fishwick
had annotated that the document be circulated to the following senior
MI6 officers: Maurice KENDWRICK-PIERCEY, then head of Balkan operations,
John RIDDE, then the security officer for Balkan operations, the SAS
liaison officer to MI6 (designation MODA/SO, but I have forgotten his
name), the head of the Eastern European Controllerate (then Richard
FLETCHER) and finally Alan PETTY, the personal secretary to the then
Chief of MI6, Colin McCOLL. This plan contained a political
justification for the assassination of Milosevic, followed by three
outline proposals on how to achieve this objective. I firmly believe
that the third of these scenarios contained information that could be
useful in establishing the causes of death of Henri Paul, the Princess
of Wales, and Dodi Al Fayed. This third scenario suggested that
Milosevic could be assassinated by causing his personal limousine to
crash. Dr Fishwick proposed to arrange the crash in a tunnel, because
the proximity of concrete close to the road would ensure that the crash
would be sufficiently violent to cause death or serious injury, and
would also reduce the possibility that there might be independent,
casual witnesses. Dr Fishwick suggested that one way to cause the crash
might be to disorientate the chauffeur using a strobe flash gun, a
device which is occasionally deployed by special forces to, for example,
disorientate helicopter pilots or terrorists, and about which MI6
officers are briefed about during their training. In short, this
scenario bore remarkable similarities to the circumstances and witness
accounts of the crash that killed the Princess of Wales, Dodi Al Fayed,
and Henri Paul. I firmly believe that this document should be yielded by
MI6 to the Judge investigating these deaths, and would provide further
leads that he could follow.
6.During my service in MI6, I also learnt unofficially and second-hand
something of the links between MI6 and the Royal Household. MI6 are
frequently and routinely asked by the Royal Household (usually via the
Foreign Office) to provide intelligence on potential threats to members
of the Royal Family whilst on overseas trips. This service would
frequently extend to asking friendly intelligence services (such as the
CIA) to place members of the Royal Family under discrete surveillance,
ostensibly for their own protection. This was particularly the case for
the Princess of Wales, who often insisted on doing without overt
personal protection, even on overseas trips. Although contact between
MI6 and the Royal Household was officially only via the Foreign Office,
I learnt while in MI6 that there was unofficial direct contact between
certain senior and influential MI6 officers and senior members of the
Royal Household. I did not see any official papers on this subject, but
I am confident that the information is correct. I firmly believe that
MI6 documents would yield substantial leads on the nature of their links
with the Royal Household, and would yield vital information about MI6
surveillance on the Princess of Wales in the days leading to her death.
7.I also learnt while in MI6 that one of the "paparazzi" photographers
who routinely followed the Princess of Wales was a member of "UKN", a
small corps of part-time MI6 agents who provide miscellaneous services
to MI6 such as surveillance and photography expertise. I do not know the
identity of this photographer, or whether he was one of the
photographers present at the time of the fatal incident. However, I am
confident that examination of UKN records would yield the identity of
this photographer, and would enable the inquest to eliminate or further
investigate that potential line of enquiry.
8.On Friday August 28 1998, I gave much of this information to Judge
Hervé Stephan, the French investigative Judge in charge of the inquest
into the accident. The lengths which MI6, the CIA and the DST have taken
to deter me giving this evidence and subsequently to stop me talking
about it, suggests that they have something to hide.
9.On Friday 31 July 1998, shortly before my appointment with Judge Hervé
Stephan, the DST arrested me in my Paris hotel room. Although I have no
record of violent conduct I was arrested with such ferocity and at
gunpoint that I received a broken rib. I was taken to the headquarters
of the DST, and interrogated for 38 hours. Despite my repeated requests,
I was never given any justification for the arrest and was not shown the
arrest warrant. Even though I was released without charge, the DST
confiscated from me my laptop computer and Psion organiser. They
illegally gave these to MI6 who took them back to the UK. They were not
returned for six months, which is illegal and caused me great
inconvenience and financial cost.
10.On Friday 7th August 1998 I boarded a Qantas flight at Auckland
International airport, New Zealand, for a flight to Sydney, Australia
where I was due to give a television interview to the Australian Channel
Nine television company. I was in my seat, awaiting take off, when an
official boarded the plane and told me to get off. At the airbridge, he
told me that the airline had received a fax "from Canberra" saying that
there was a problem with my travel papers. I immediately asked to see
the fax, but I was told that "it was not possible". I believe that this
is because it didn't exist. This action was a ploy to keep me in New
Zealand so that the New Zealand police could take further action against
me. I had been back in my Auckland hotel room for about half an hour
when the New Zealand police and NZSIS, the New Zealand Secret
Intelligence Service, raided me. After being detained and searched for
about three hours, they eventually confiscated from me all my remaining
computer equipment that the French DST had not succeeded in taking from
me. Again, I didn't get some of these items back until six months later.
11.Moreover, shortly after I had given this evidence to Judge Stephan, I
was invited to talk about this evidence in a live television interview
on America’s NBC television channel. I flew from Geneva to JFK airport
on Sunday 30 August to give the interview in New York on the following
Monday morning. Shortly after arrival at John F Kennedy airport, the
captain of the Swiss Air flight told all passengers to return to their
seats. Four US Immigration authority officers entered the plane, came
straight to my seat, asked for my passport as identity, and then
frogmarched me off the plane. I was taken to the immigration detention
centre, photographed, fingerprinted, manacled by my ankle to a chair for
seven hours, served with deportation papers (exhibit 1) and then retu
rned on the next available plane to Geneva. I was not allowed to make
any telephone calls to the representatives of NBC awaiting me in the
airport. The US Immigration Officers - who were all openly sympathetic
to my situation and apologised for treating me so badly - openly
admitted that they were acting under instructions from the CIA.
12.In January of this year, I booked a chalet in the village of Samoens
in the French Alps for a ten day snowboarding holiday with my parents. I
picked up my parents from Geneva airport in a hire car on the evening of
January 8, and set off for the French border. At the French customs
post, our car was stopped and I was detained. Four officers from the DST
held me for four hours. At the end of this interview, I was served with
the deportation papers below (exhibit 2), and ordered to return to
Switzerland. Note that in the papers, my supposed destination has been
changed from "Chamonix" to "Samoens". This is because when first
questioned by a junior DST officer, I told him that my destination was
"Chamonix". When a senior officer arrived an hour or so later, he cro
ssed out the word and changed it to "Samoens", without ever even asking
or confirming this with me. I believe this is because MI6 had told them
of my true destination, having learnt the information through
surveillance on my parent's telephone in the UK. My banning from France
is entirely illegal under European law. I have a British passport and am
entitled to travel freely within the European Union. MI6 have "done a
deal" with the DST to have me banned, and have not used any recognised
legal mechanism to deny my rights to freedom of travel. I believe that
the DST and MI6 have banned me from France because they wanted to
prevent me from giving further evidence to Judge Stephan’s inquest,
which at the time, I was planning to do.
13.Whatever MI6’s role in the events leading to the death of the
Princess of Wales, Dodi Al Fayed and Henri Paul, I am absolutely certain
that there is substantial evidence in their files that would provide
crucial evidence in establishing the exact causes of this tragedy. I
believe that they have gone to considerable lengths to obstruct the
course of justice by interfering with my freedom of speech and travel,
and this in my view confirms my belief that they have something to hide.
I believe that the protection given to MI6 files under the Official
Secrets Act should be set aside in the public interest in uncovering
once and for all the truth behind these dramatic and historically
momentous events.
