The alleged suicide took place on Tuesday when an undertrial, identified as Amolkar (40) was found hanging from the grill of a vent in the toilet. The incident took place in the Drug Addicts' ward in jail number three.
"Amolkar was one of the inmates with suicidal tendency and was under special watch of the jail authorities. He was found hanging in the wards's toilet by the other inmates and the authorities were then informed," a senior jail official told PTI.
"He had recently come to Tihar facing trial under IPC sections 302, 309 for his wife's murder. From August 7 to 12, Amolkar was admitted to AIIMS after he had consumed Organic-phosphorus in an attempt to commit suicide following which he was sent to Tihar," the official said.
The deceased was kept in the casualty ward of Tihar from August 16-18 after which he was shifted to the behavioural therapy ward on the recommendations of the doctors here, he said.
"He had maintained a clean record in jail. On September 2, he tore the bed sheet available in the ward and used it to hang himself in the toilet of the ward. An enquiry will soon be initiated to look into the details of the matter," he added.
In another incident, an epileptic inmate who was lodged in jail number four, died yesterday after he allegedly slipped in the toilet.
"Vinod (26) was an epileptic inmate and had fallen in the toilet suffering serious injuries. After giving him first aid, he was taken to Deen Dayal Upadhyay hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries," another jail official said.
Tihar jail's behavioural changing ward currently houses 16 inmates out of which, one has been tagged of possessing suicidal tendency, rests are being treated for depression.
