Information as such that is perceived as a threat to National interest and secrecy generally ends up in something misfortunate.

He's too high profile, too much in the public eye. In such cases, "disappearances" and "unfortunate accidents" are problematic avenues of approach. They raise too many questions, create too many suspicions. Generally, in cases like that, instead of that sort of permanent solution, the subject is discredited and made to appear bonkers instead.
There are more than one way to silence a message that isn't for public consumption.
With that said, another possible explanation is that he didn't see anything at all, and is just making it all up, in which case there is no need to discredit or silence him - he'll do that to himself, eventually, and until then no actual national security secrets would have been released.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
