Letter: Turing's suicide
Sir: Further to Alec Vans's letter (3 February), one of our greatest codebreakers in the last war, Alan Turing, was a homosexual, but the police did not concern themselves about this until after the war when, it has been alleged, their harassment led to his suicide.
Yours faithfully,
