LONDON, Oct 6: A British television journalist who was forced to resign from Sky News channel after being accused of faking a report during the Iraq war has been found dead, police said on Monday.

A police spokeswoman said James Forlong, 44, was found at his home in Hove, southeast England, in the early hours of Saturday morning.

“There are no suspicious circumstances,” she said. A Sky spokeswoman confirmed the death but declined to elaborate.
