Iran Nuclear Monitor Dies Mysteriously

It's doctor assisted suicide.

They have it in Oregon too.

It's s bit more discreet there though... not so dramatic as pushing the patient out a window.

This building has windows that open??

So he just casually walked over to a 17th floor window in a UN Bldg and opened it up and stepped out?

Just doesn't pass the ole' whiff test...

I read that it was a stairwell. Maybe not so many cameras in the stairwells.
The NYC UN building apparently has windows that open though, because this lady was able to be suicided last Feb:
Austrian UN employee dies in apparent suicide

From what I have read, UN buildings seem like really great places to jump to your death.

Exactly, it doesn't really make much sense.

The only possible explanation to them not knowing who did this, is that they are/will be covering up the info from either the cameras and/or the entrance records for the secured doors. Only the people who are in control of the monitoring systems for the building have the power to do this.

They need to get Columbo on the case, he'd have it solved in a matter hours...

After the first suicide (or murder), there is NO WAY it would be treated as anything other than suspicious, and investigated as such.

The fact that it has not been treated in this manner is suspicious in itself and lends itself to a cover-up/inside job.

That's the problem with this whole case!

There is more to this than meets the eye... as a previous poster pointed out, but hasn't been looked into, another British UN worker died in the same way 4 months ago, I believe he too was a Nuclear expert.

Police are also investigating the death of another Brit who fell from the same building four months ago.

www.mirror.co.uk...

I can't find any info on the guy who died 4 months ago on the web, but in a newspaper article I read yesterday I'm sure it said he was a Nuclear expert. I tried to look up the article on it's web site but the story has been shortened and doesn't state this now. (I was going to start this thread after reading the article but got beaten to it, the newspaper article was also very short and small so could have been easily missed).

What are the chances of this happening? two of them? I call foul play and this needs more publicity and investigation by credible people.... there's a conspiracy here, I'm 100% sure.

This cannot bode well...

Is this the TIT for the alleged Iranian Assassination TAT that occurred recently?

reply to post by II HAL II


Yeah I saw that as well.
There is a thread just recently posted here at ATS on it.

Since this Guy worked on Seismic stuff IMHO he must have come from AWE Blacknest...

AWE Blacknest

So given the speciality involved with Blacknest, what would this guy know that would make him a target.

Perhaps Israel tried to bribe him to plant some evidence or something like that and he refused. Then Israel heard him over a secret tapped phone line, tell someone about it and talking about going to the press. Next thing he knew he was "rolling up the windows" with his hands and feet in mid air.

Austrian UN employee dies in apparent suicide

In that article at the link it doesn't mention what work the Austrian women did at the UN but I found this follow up article.

Maria DiBiase WMR has learned from UN sources that the 19th Floor from which UN employee Maria DiBiase plunged to her death in the early morning of February 17, houses the Department of Peace-keeping Operations/Field Administration and Logistics Division (DPKO/FALD).
The offices also house the code machines used for the encrypted fax machines used for DPKO activities in addition to a spare set of code machines used for DPKO rapid response teams. DiBiase, an Austrian national, was a computer specialist for the UN and a former Conference Services staff member of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, Austria.
WMR has learned that the UN Special Commission (UNSCOM) maintained in a special UN's computer database all the files on Sadaam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction program retrieved from compact disks provided to UNSCOM by Saddam's government prior to the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
The database is said to include all the black market nuclear suppliers involved in providing materials to Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, and Libya via Turkey and the A Q Khan smuggling network.
The list reportedly includes front companies in Switzerland linked to Marc Rich, the American fugitive pardoned by President Clinton, and Dick Cheney.
DiBiase is said to have arrived at work Sunday morning to finish a project that was due on Monday morning.WMR has been told that there may have been a "black bag" operation taking place on the 19th floor at the same time DiBiase arrived at work.

www.newsfollowup.com...

It seems that people coincidentally take their own lives on a Sunday in the U.N building. Still think it's pretty sus. Guess we'll have to wait and see what this guy was working on at the time of his death.

Also, just googled what a "black bag" operation is and this is what I found...

Black bag operations (or black bag jobs) are covert or clandestine surreptitious entries into structures to obtain information for human intelligence operations.
This usually entails breaking and entering into denied areas.
Some of the tactics, techniques and procedures associated with black bag operations are: lock picking, safe cracking, key impressions, fingerprinting, photography, electronic surveillance (including audio and video surveillance), mail manipulation (flaps and seals), forgery and a host of other related skills.

en.wikipedia.org...

Wonder if there was a "black bag" operation underway when this man turned up for work that he may have disturbed on Sunday too ? Hence why he was thrown down a stairwell?

Also, the thing both of these people had in common was one was an Iranian Nuclear Monitor and the other woman was a computer tech who worked on the same floor that housed the database that was said to include all the black market nuclear suppliers involved in providing materials to Iran

Strange coincidence?


[edit on 24-10-2009 by Flighty]

Well that is usally what happends when you no to much. It is really a good kill because as someone already stated a autopsy won't be ably to conclude what injuries were sustained before the fall or after.

It's truly amazing the number of inspectors, microbiologists, researchers, politicians, journalists, scientists & co who get suicided each year coincidentally at important times in their fields.

Building jumping, drownding, plane crashes, car crashes, etc. it's all the same outcome.

Young people going to college should be warned that certain degrees carry an extremely high suicide/mortality rate early in life.

looks like the story is getting som emore MSM attention again!

Nuclear Expert's Death 'Not Suicide'

In my opinion, it does not look like suicide. My example is that somebody took him up to the top floor and took him down," Yen said

www.foxnews.com...

this will be very interesting to see what comes to light. maybe we were right all along.

reply to post by grantbeed


Thanks for that link. I also found another one from the U.K

Professor Yen used new forensic techniques to detect internal bruising caused by strangulation which would not be visible to the eye.

She said: ‘In my opinion, it does not look like suicide. My example is that somebody took him up to the top floor and took him down.

‘At the moment I don’t have the police reports. We did a CT scan. From the external exam, I saw injuries on the neck but these were not due to strangulation.’

It is expected to take three weeks for blood test results to come back. Austrian police said they believe Mr Hampton committed suicide.

He had been working for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO) at the UN building.

reply to post by Flighty


yes, i think this will be very interesting to follow. Why was he killed? and whom by?

He must of had something on his conscience that weighed heavily upon him? Who knows what information he was privy to regarding the murky nature of Iran's nuclear program? Could a conspiracy be in order surrounding his mysterious death, who really knows, but if that is the case, I would not be the least surprised? As some have speculated, it may be an assisted suicide, also known in some circles as murder, perhaps?

It is an odd coincidence, that the man who took his own life, as the official story states, was a member of the group tasked with determining the true nature of Iran's nuclear program? Who benefits and loses from this? The US/Israel as their war machine gathers steam? Or the Iranians who may have lost the opportunity of proving to the world, "I told you so?" The world is becoming a dark and murky place, governed by deceit and corruption.

This story jogs my memory of another suicide under auspicious circumstances. Any one remember Dr. David Kelly? The British weapons expert, who as some believe, was privy to definitive proof of Saddam Hussein's weapons capabilities before the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Well, he died by suicide, as well. Here is the official story, rendered from the investigation conducted by the authorities, regarding, the nature of his death.

His life ended in the cold, lonely wood where he was found the next morning, his left wrist cut open, and three nearly-empty blister packs of painkillers in his jacket pocket.

His death was, of course, sensational front-page news. Dr Kelly, unknown to almost everybody at the beginning of that July, had in recent days barely been absent from media headlines.

Much to his chagrin he had been thrust into the harsh glare of publicity, accused of being the mole who expressed to the BBC deep concerns about the Government's "sexing up" of its dossier on weapons of mass destruction

www.dailymail.co.uk...

So, this man may of had definitive knowledge of Saddam's weapons capabilities or lack there of? He could have thwarted the efforts by Prime Minister Tony Blair and United States government and their aspirations to invade Iraq with the evidence we know, now, was doctored and untrue. This man, alone, could have refuted the government's claims on both sides of the Atlantic. Here is what Dr. Kelly had to say about his eventual demise.

British diplomat David Broucher told the Hutton inquiry that, some months before Dr Kelly's death, he had asked him what would happen if Iraq were invaded.

Rather chillingly, Dr Kelly replied that he "would probably be found dead in the woods".

At the inquiry, this was construed as meaning that he had already had suicidal thoughts.

www.dailymail.co.uk...

The author of this Daily Mail article, Norman Baker, has come to the conclusion that Dr. Kelly was murdered, and not a victim of taking his own life, as the official story states. I echo his sentiments as well, his suicide is just too convenient for the power brokers at the time, and his direct knowledge of events leading up to the invasion of Iraq. He also had the potential of being a whistle-blower with refutable evidence to the contrary of the drum-line being pounded about the mysterious WMD's by both US and British governments. So, perhaps, this latest suicide of the IAEA inspector is of the same ilk as the untimely death of Dr. David Kelly?

UN Nuclear Expert's Death 'Not Suicide'

A British nuclear expert who fell out of the 17th floor of a United Nations building did not commit suicide.

The doctor said Timothy Hampton may have been hurled to his death.

The 47-yr-old nuclear scientist was found dead last week at the bottom of a stairwell in Vienna.

Professor Kathrin Yen, of the Ludwig Institute in Graz, Austria, believes one theory is that Hampton was carried to the 17th floor from his 6th floor office and thrown to his death.

Hampton was "not the suicide type."

Very interesting... He was working on the nuclear-test-ban-treaty?

He had been working for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO) at the UN building and the Austrian Times has been told that Mr Hampton may have been involved in talks discussing nuclear testing in Iran. The UN has strongly denied the claims although Mr Hampton's title - processing engineer - meant he was "part of the team maintaining and operating the International Data Centre Division application software to generate and distribute data products and services to CTBTOs 182 Member States".

This meant he was responsible for monitoring a vast array of technical data from hundreds of monitoring stations around the world in the hope of discovering any illegal nuclear activity - including Iran. In fact although CTBTO officials were reluctant to admit it, of the 300 plus monitoring stations set up globally there are at least two in the geographical area of Iran sending data back to Vienna.

UN Vienna Offices

Austrian Times: Mystery deepens over Vienna UN death

Mr Hampton's body was discovered last Tuesday at about 8pm. Friends said it was usual for him to work late into the night.

Under a year ago, an American died at the IAEA in strikingly similar circumstances, his body being found at the bottom of a stairwell.

A UN spokeswoman said an investigation into that case continues, though Austrian police have concluded it was suicide.

She said: ‘This might have been a copycat thing in the CTBTO.’

A year ago someone died in the same facility of buildings in the same way?!

As of yet... I have not been able to find the NAME or EXACT DATE of the American Suicide at the Vienna IAEA building mentioned above. But here is another one I found out about in my initial search. This one seems FISHY too!

Other recent UN "suicides". An Austrian Connection?

Maria DiBiase, who worked with the Austrian Consulate, was discovered in the complex's rear courtyard by horrified UN staffers about 8 a.m., police said.

DiBiase, who lived in a dormitory on W. 34th St., apparently jumped after showing up for work at the UN early Sunday, police sources said.

I am not finding ANYTHING about the "strikingly similar" suicide mention.

They mention that an "AMERICAN" died from apparent suicide fall in a stairwell in the IAEA offices across the street from where THIS suicide took place LESS THAN A YEAR AGO.

I have been SEARCHING MY BUTT OFF and so far cant find A DARN THING.

No name, date.... nothing.

Very fishy!!!!

- - - -

I just had a powerful thought!!!

WHO COMMITS SUICIDE BY JUMPING DOWN A STAIRWELL?!?!?!

Logic tells me: No one!

Suicides by jumping seem to take place outdoors, from a bridge, or exterior of a building.

Jumping down a stairwell seems to risky to the suicidal's goal: in that it might not 'get the job done' like you only break a leg and hit the next level down.

UK Expert Involved in Iran Talks Dies Mysteriously

According to UN staff members, four months ago, an employee, who was also believed to be British, lost his life in a similar case when plunging down from a comparable height.

I do not know if THIS is the similar case? OR YET A fourth !

The similar case they said was AMERICAN. This leads me to believe we are talking about a 4th suspicious suicide.

I believe I am on to something. I found a PDF document with WHAT I believe to be Timothy Hampton's name attached to it.

Actually it just says T. Hampton, but it is for the (CTBTO) Comprehensive Test-Ban-Treaty Organization which he worked for.
