Rudolf Hess is dead. So is Sebastian Fang. Both men were found hanging from two ropes in Spandau prison, in separate cells, in separate circumstances, meeting their ends hours apart.

Mr Hess is Adolf Hitler’s former deputy and has been serving a lifetime sentence for crimes against peace and conspiracy. He was found hanging by an electrical chord in his summer house in an undisclosed location of Spandau prison.

Mr Fang is the leader of Werewolf Nation and was sentenced to an unlimited prison term for inciting lycanthropy. He has committed suicide in the depths of Spandau prison by a silver chain.

Spandau prison officials from the Four Powers (US, Soviet Union, France and the UK) have commented saying: “we are investigating exactly how both men died. At this time we are giving their families time to grieve and our agents more time to recover any clues from the death scenes until we comment further.”

Rudolf Hess was 93. Sebastian “RuWolf” Fang was 66.
