A 56-year-old senior journalist allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself at his residence at Aurangabad in Maharashtra on Sunday, police said.
The journalist, Sundar Vilas Latpate, was found hanging at his house in Pundalik Nagar around noon, an official said.
He was rushed to a local hospital, but was declared dead before admission, he said.

A case of accidental death has been registered and a probe is underway, he said.
