Main suspect in India gang rape/murder commits suicide in his cell

Police said the suspect hanged himself around 5am this morning in his prison cell...but his lawyer and parents are claiming he was murdered. 

"Ram did not kill himself. He had no reason to. He was murdered," his father said.

"This is not a suicide. He was kept in isolation, with at least four special guards posted outside his cell. We suspect foul play" his lawyer said

33 year old Ram Singh was the driver of the New Delhi bus on which a 23 year old student was gang raped and fatally beaten on December 16 2012. The woman later died from injuries sustained from the attack. Six suspects were arrested and if convicted, could face the death penalty.
