An Egyptian billionaire who feared assassination after being labelled an Israeli double agent has been found dead outside his London flat.

Financier Ashraf Marwan, 62, the son-in-law of former Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser, had been named by Israeli officials as a source for the country’s intelligence service Mossad.

Scotland Yard is treating his death in Carlton House Terrace in St Johns as ‘unexplained’.

Mr Marwan, 62, who was married to Mr Nasser’s daughter Mona, had been living in London for many years after leaving Egyptian government service in the late Seventies.
