How would this go down in the UK?

I read this article on Reddit (I hope it's within OCUK rules for me to post this).

http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/shirt/afib1/truecrypt_and_the_fifth_amendment_saved_my_life/

In short, a guy had some data on a truecrypt hard-drive, and courts couldn't get to it, and he never revealed the password.

What would happen, in an identical situation in the UK? Let's say the story was identical, word for word, but that the legal battle took place in the UK, under UK law.

Any takers?
