«Breaking News» Robert Maxwell's sons reveal he was due to meet Bank of England the day he died

Media tycoon Robert Maxell had a massive row with his son and was due to meet the Bank of England on the same day his body was found floating in the Atlantic - his sons have revealed.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with the Sunday Times, Kevin and Ian Maxwell said they do not believe their father's death was a suicide despite the conspiracy theories surrounding it. 

According to Kevin, he and Maxwell had been engaged in a shouting match on the day he died over a 'day of reckoning' meeting with the Bank of England that was due to take place that day. 

'In 27 years I've never speculated: was he killed or did he kill himself?' Kevin said, 'If I say anything about it, I think it is highly unlikely that he would have taken his own life, it wasn't in his makeup or his mentality.

'I don't think any murder conspiracy stands up, so for me, it is an unexplained accident and I'm content to live with that.' 

Maxwell was said to have been under pressure to explain the precarious financial position of two of his companies, Maxwell Communications Corporation (MCC) and Mirror Group holdings, at the time of his death in November 1991.

Maxwell had taken two loans from the bank Goldman Sachs, one for £20m and one for £30m - both of which he had failed to repay despite extensions and warnings. 

The bank then started selling Mirror group and MCC shares it held as collateral and the sell-off was due to be publicly announced within days.

Maxwell's dead body was discovered hours after news of the stock crisis broke having gone missing from his yacht that morning. 

Three pathologists who examined his body failed to agree how he died, although an inquest later determined that he had suffered a heart attack and accidentally drowned after falling overboard.

In the wake of his death it emerged that Maxwell had taken £460m from the Mirror Group's pension fund and both sons Kevin and Ian were arrested and charged with conspiracy to defraud the pensioners.

After a lengthy and traumatic eight-month trial, the pair were eventually found not guilty and Kevin Maxwell became Britain's biggest personal bankrupt at the age of 33. 

The theft of the pension funds left 32,000 members facing years of stress before the fund was topped up by a City consortium. 

Kevin was said to have been closest to the company's finances and was aware that Maxwell had been using the pension fund.

'I have always accepted that it was right that there was a trial,' Kevin said, 'I personally didn't handle the conflict of interest between loyalty to family and duty to all the other stakeholders, including the pensioners, so of course there was a case to answer.'

At its zenith, Robert Maxwell's media empire included the Mirror, The People and the New York Daily News as well as several other businesses. He was 68 at the time of his death in 1991.

After his death it emerged Maxwell had raided £460million from the Mirror Group pension fund

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
