Former Fiji Sun journalist Raymond Singh (31) committed suicide in prison.
He was serving life sentence for murdering his wife in 2008.
Commissioner of Corrections Service Lieutenant Colonel Ifereimi Vasu said Singh was taken to the Commonwealth Memorial Hospital after allegedly consuming a toxic liquid whilst watering the vegetable garden.
“He was admitted overnight to the Intensive Care Unit but died at 5.45am on March 15. The matter has been referred to police,” he said.
