Anti-virus software entrepreneur John McAfee has been found dead in a Barcelona prison cell hours after a Spanish court agreed to extradite him to the US to face tax evasion charges.
The Catalan justice department said medics had tried to resuscitate the 75-year-old, but were not successful.
It added that "everything indicates" McAfee had taken his own life.
A controversial figure in the tech world, his company released the first commercial anti-virus software.
