A constable allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself in the office of divisional assistant commissioner in suburban Powai here, police said on Thursday.
Sudhir Gurav (46), who was attached to Powai police station, hanged himself from a ceiling fan in the office at around 9.30 pm on Wednesday when other policemen had left the premises, an official said.
Gurav's body was found by one of his colleagues later in the night, he added.
