Banker suspected of being ‘Putney pusher’ found dead

Nicholas Brandram, a multi-millionaire banker and descendant of Queen Victoria, was discovered deceased in his West London residence on Tuesday, three months after his arrest. The 44-year-old was apprehended in June on suspicion of grievous bodily harm, following a 2017 incident on Putney Bridge. The victim, a woman, was shoved into traffic by a jogger, who then narrowly avoided a collision with a double-decker bus.

CCTV footage captured the incident on 5 May 2017, with the pedestrian sustaining minor injuries. The Met Police confirmed that Brandram was found unresponsive inside a property in Chiswick at 7.12pm on Tuesday. His death is currently being treated as unexpected, but not suspicious, and an investigation file will be prepared for the coroner.
