Zac Brettler, 19, plunged to his death from a fifth-floor apartment overlooking the River Thames opposite MI6 headquarters at 2.24am on November 29, 2019.

A GPS tracker hidden inside a Mercedes rental car has shed new light on the mysterious death of an oligarch-obsessed teenager who fell from a luxury tower block after spending a night with a gangster and a millionaire crypto businessman.

His death remains shrouded in mystery as both men spun a web of lies and blamed whisky and sleeping pills for their poor memory when they were arrested on suspicion of murder. The Met Police took four days to visit the flat and failed to speak to key witnesses or test evidence such as blood-like stains on the walls.

Verinder Sharma , known in the criminal underworld as 'Indian Dave', owned the flat from which Zac Brettler fell to his death in November 2019 It contradicts facts that he gave during interviews at Charing Cross police station in December 2019 and March 2020. He told officers that he went home at midnight, hours before Brettler's death.

Zac's fall was captured on the MI6 building's CCTV across the river . Pictured main in this picture is the building he jumped from 'No more messages please till you land,' he told Shamji, adding: 'And then arrange a meeting with him.' CCTV shows Shamji on Brettler's street at 8.18pm. At 8.43pm, they were just around the corner from Sharma's flat when the vehicle stopped for seven minutes before Shamji took an unnecessarily long route to get to the property.

They spoke in the car par for about 20 minutes before parting. Shamji got into his car at 1.50am and called Sharma but got no answer. He drove off down the river before looping back on himself.He went on to turn off the main roads into the back streets of Pimlico, where he formed a box-life route to turn around. He continued towards home but in an inefficient manner.

At 2.26am, Sharma rang his daughter for three minutes. Shamji arrived on the fifth floor at 2.30am and stayed inside Sharma's flat for 11 minutes. At about 2.45am, Shamji got in the lift and walked down to the Thames. He stopped outside where Brettler had landed and looked into the water. A coroner concluded: 'Mr Shamji was looking for Zac.'

She also sent a message about the 'effects of ketamine' but Shamji replied: 'I did not drink and drive.' Since the death of Brettler, Shamji has spent time in Mayfair, Los Angeles and the Dominican Republic, where is rumoured to have applied for a passport. But they have been heavily criticised by his grieving parents for missing crucial evidence with questions remaining as to why they decided not to forensically test smears resembling blood on the walls in the bathroom and bedroom.

The youngster had become enamoured with wealth during his time at Mill Hill School in north London, an exclusive £30,000-a-year boarding school where many pupils were the children of Russian oligarchs. Sharma and Shamji were both arrested on suspicion of murder but neither were ever charged. Sharma later died in 2020 in the same flat from an apparent drug overdose.He told new friends that he had recently inherited his late father's fortune but he was being blocked from accessing it by his mother, who lived in Dubai.
