Wiltshire coroner orders review into suicide

A coroner has ordered police and health services to review the way they treated a patient who hanged himself after being falsely accused of a sex assault. An inquest into John Keogh's death in Wiltshire heard how police failed to tell him they had dropped the assault case against a fellow female patient. Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Trust said it always seeks to safeguard its clients and to learn from incidents. Wiltshire Police will not comment until it has responded to the coroner.
