A 33-YEAR-OLD MAN has been found dead at a Malaga prison with no signs of violence and an investigation has been opened to determine the cause of death.

The inmate was serving a sentence for robbery with violence at the Alhaurin de la Torre jail on the outskirts of the city.

Prison officers found the body in the man’s cell that he shared with another inmate. His cellmate did not realise the man had passed away until officers did their morning rounds.

An autopsy will be held at the Institute of Legal Medicine of Malaga to discover the cause of death.
