Rohtash shot himself in the head with his service revolver inside the Barakhamba police station around 11.10 p.m. Sunday.
The police said he replaced the duty officer at the police station and took charge around 10.20 p.m. There were two other policemen present in the police station when he shot himself.
“He was immediately rushed to the Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital where he died just past midnight. No suicide note was recovered from him,” said a police officer.
