HMP Wandsworth under fire over inmate's suicide

A damning investigation found staff repeatedly missed opportunities to help Rajwinder Singh, 36, who took his own life 11 days after arriving at the south-west London prison in June 2023. The prison falsified records, ignored his call bell and did not check on him when his wife phoned with concerns for his welfare the day he died. A Prisons and Probation Ombudsman report said the prison "made critical and repeated failings in their duty of care to Mr Singh".
