An inmate serving life term in Dasna Jail here has committed suicide by hanging himself, police said on Tuesday.
Police said Babloo, a resident of Abupur in Ghaziabad district, hanged himself in the toilet with his towel on Monday night.
He was rushed to the hospital where doctors pronounced him dead.
"His behaviour was normal... but suddenly he committed suicide. It is being investigated and a magisterial inquiry has been ordered," said Dasna Jail Superintendent M.S. Yadav.
Babloo and his brother were arrested in 2004 for killing their neighbour and eventually sentenced for life in 2011.
