J.J. (Jack) English, Senior Superintendent RHKP - CID/Kowloon

I am doing some research into the circumstances concerning the suicide of Senior Superintendent JJ (Jack) English CID/K in June 1976. He was found dead in the old Marine Police HQ building in Tsimshatsui in the early hours of 12 June 1976. I am his elder son. The purpose for this research is to inform the surviving members of the family of what happened, why it happened and any fall out following his death. His wife and my mother, Kim English never discussed it with her sons and it was only after her death last year that I started this project.
