ONE OF THE panellists on BBC quiz programme Eggheads has claimed he may have once killed a man.
CJ de Mooi has made the admission in his autobiography, an extract of which has today been published in the Daily Mirror.
He stated that this incident happened while he was living on the streets of Amsterdam in 1988.
After being attacked by someone with a knife, de Mooi claims to have punched him in the face and thrown him into a canal.
Speaking about the incident he said, “I fully suspect I killed him. I’ve no idea what happened to him.”
Police in the city said that they had not been aware of the incident until de Mooi’s admission but that they would now be investigating it.
In the course of his new autobiography he also talks about his time working as a prostitute in London and Amsterdam.
De Mooi later went on to become the head of the English Chess Federation.
The quizzer also appeared on The Weakest Link prior to becoming a regular on the Eggheads.

€12 million for a cycle bridge and more homeless people than ever. Something is seriously wrong with the people in charge!
Funny that the Chief Constable decides to stand with SF now making such a statement. Maybe he can have a word with the fools we call politicians down here. Joan Burton thinks the PIRA have rearmed and have thousands of volunteers ready to restart the armed struggle going on her ridiculous statement yesterday. The dissidents in Derry, Belfast and Lurgan are going to love this, they can now say that their point has been proven-that even if SF and the PIRA have given up the armed struggle and renounced violence they would be shafted. I look forward to the bounce in dissident violence and our FF/FG/Labour fools can be partly blamed. They are willing to play dangerous games with the peace process for their own selfish reasons, hoping it will stunt the growth of SF and save a few of their fat backhinds to keep on milking our Dail gravy train!
