Spy chief Alex Allan found dead with 'blood everywhere'

Britain's leading spymaster, who is in a coma after apparently being struck down by a mystery illness, was found covered in blood, according to a tenant. Alex Allan has been described as "very, very seriously ill" and is under police guard in the intensive care unit of a west London hospital. He was found by Dominique Salm, a painter who rents an artist's studio in his west London home. According to neighbours she found him slumped unconscious with "blood everywhere". Doctors have run a battery of test to try and establish why the 57-year-old Chairman of the Joint Intelligence Committee collapsed at his home on Monday. Government sources insist there is no evidence of suspicious circumstances, but Miss Salm's account will add to speculation that Mr Allan may have been targeted by a foreign spy. READ HERE
