I was one of the persons to whom Coapman made the remark about Mahendra dying in his arms. It was in Mussoorie in 1977 and my youngest brother was also a witness. I later googled him and found the CIA reference on website from his old school in the US. He also claimed a royal from Bhutan died in his arms in similar circumstances, after eating supper on shikar. Very convenient, no?
