Peter Jones died whilst diving in Cardiff Docks to retrieve drugs from the bottom of a ship.
He had been on what was described at the inquest as a secret operation at the time although it was later found at Cardiff Crown Court that he had been diving to recover cannabis that had been lashed to the hull of a ship as part of an international drugs smuggling operation.
