A 28-year-old guard on duty at Yerawada Central Jail in Pune allegedly tried to commit suicide with his service rifle on Sunday morning, a police official said.
Amol Mane shot himself in the forehead at around 4:30 am and colleagues rushed him to Sassoon Hospital where he is undergoing treatment, the official said. The incident may be the fallout of a personal issue, the official said, adding that a further probe was underway.
