A FATHER was “hounded” by the Child Maintenance Service (CMS) for money he did not owe in the months before he took his own life, a pre-inquest review has heard. Rail depot worker Gavin Briggs was found dead in Little Somborne, near Stockbridge, on July 3 last year. His father, Ian Briggs, told the hearing in Winchester that his son had been chased by the CMS for £26,000 which he said was based on incorrect figures. He added that his 40-year-old son, from Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, was also facing pressures from his employment with Hitachi at the North Pole rail depot in London where he was undergoing a probation review.
