Simon Andriesz was found dead in a town just outside Bangkok on the morning of September 23. The whistleblower had claimed his former employer, Mr. Lutnick, failed to disclose a business relationship with the paedophile financier. The banker uncovered emails from 2018 which he claimed showed Mr. Lutnick and Epstein were discussing a start-up business in which they had involvement. Khlong Luang Town’s municipality office recorded the death of the 57-year-old Briton, who had worked on Wall Street but was recently living in Cornwall. His cause of death listed as “asphyxiation from hanging.”
