A 34-year-old man allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself inside his one-room accommodation on a church compound in Khan Market here, the police said today.

No suicide note was found on the spot.

The incident happened on August 17.

Anthony used to live with his wife and two children on the premises of the Church of Mother Vailankanni.
