Soham accused in coma after suicide bid

SOHAM murder accused Ian Huntley was in a coma last night after an apparent suicide bid.

He was found having a fit in his cell in the early hours of yesterday morning after taking an overdose of anti-depressants at one of Britain's top security prisons, sources said.

An investigation was launched immediately, focusing on the suspicion that Huntley, 29, had stored up his prescribed medication for the overdose.
