A senior journalist allegedly committed suicide today at his ancestral home in Kotdwar in Pauri district.

Police said Kamal Joshi (65) might have hanged himself in the morning but it came to light around 5 pm when a friend trying his number did not get a response and asked one of his relatives to enquire.

When the door of Joshi's room was pushed open his body was found hanging from an iron rod in the ceiling, they said.

No suicide note has been recovered but prima facie it appears to be a case of suicide, they said.
