An preliminary autopsy has confirmed that John McAfee killed himself in his jail cell.

The tech millionaire was found dead in his Spanish cell last week ahead of his extradition to the US.

He was facing charges of tax evasion from the US government.

El Pais reports that sources close to the case said McAfee was found in his cell with a suicide note in his pocket.

The 75-year-old's Instagram account posted an image of the letter Q less than half-an-hour after UK news services revealed he had died.
