Diplomat was banned from talking about Dr David Kelly when giving evidence at Iraq

A former British diplomat has revealed he was ‘warned’ by the senior civil servant
running the Iraq Inquiry not to mention the late biological weapons expert Dr David
Kelly when giving evidence.Carne Ross, the UK’s Iraq expert at the UN Security Council
between 1998 and 2002, said he was told by the ‘very aggressive’ official that if he
discussed Dr Kelly during his testimony, he would be silenced. It is understood the
official who delivered the order was Margaret Aldred, secretary of the Iraq Inquiry
chaired by Sir John Chilcot.

A former British diplomat said he was 'warned' not to mention the late biological weapons expert Dr David Kelly (pictured)
The inquiry was set up in 2009 to examine why Tony Blair took Britain into war.
Mr Ross was a close friend of Dr Kelly, a Ministry of Defence employee and world-
renowned scientist who was found dead in an Oxfordshire wood in 2003. Dr Kelly had
been named as the prime source of a BBC report accusing the Blair Government of lying
to take Britain into the war.Having worked with Dr Kelly for several years, Mr Ross
intended to say a few words about him as a tribute which he submitted in earlier written
evidence.
A 2003 public inquiry found Dr Kelly committed suicide. But successive
governments have refused to hold a full coroner’s inquest, making him the only person
in modern English legal history to be denied a proper inquest and fuelling claims of a
cover-up.
Last month a group of doctors wrote to the chief coroner of England and
Wales, Peter Thornton QC, urging him to resume the inquest which was halted in 2003.
This was rejected. The revelation that a witness was informed by an inquiry official
what they could and could not discuss before giving evidence raises serious questions
about its impartiality.

Sir John Chilcot, The head of the Iraq War Inquiry, was 'incredibly tense' when evidence
was being submittedAnd this weekend a senior MP who asked to remain anonymous has
revealed that when he offered to submit evidence about Dr Kelly’s death to the inquiry
in 2009, he was told by Chilcot personally that he ‘did not want to touch the Kelly issue’.
Speaking to The Mail on Sunday, Mr Ross, who now runs New York-based diplomatic
advisory group Independent Diplomat, recalled the day he gave evidence to the Iraq
Inquiry in July 2010. He said: ‘I was taken into the room where witnesses sat and
shortly before I was to testify an official came in and said, “You are not to speak about
David Kelly.” ’
He was told that if he did the videolink of his evidence to the press would be cut and he
would have to leave. Having been warned, he kept quiet.
He said: ‘I wasn’t happy about it. I felt very strongly about David. He was a man of
honesty and integrity.

The inquiry in 2009 to examine why Tony Blair took Britain into war
‘I wanted to remember him in that setting and they prevented me for no good reason.
What difference would it have made? It’s pure control freakery. It was weird. Chilcot
was incredibly tense. Clearly he feared I was going to say something.’
When asked if he thought Dr Kelly killed himself, Mr Ross said: ‘I don’t know. I would
like to see the people who hounded him to his death brought to account. It was as good
as murder, what they did. If you publicly humiliate a man, and you drive him to his
death, it’s as bad as putting hemlock in his soup.’
An Iraq Inquiry spokesman refused to comment.
