Peter Lynch was found unresponsive in his cell at HMP Moorland, in South Yorkshire, on 19 October, Doncaster Coroner's Court heard.

One birdwatcher, who spotted a short-eared owl above moorland in the Peak District only to see it shot out of the sky, agreed to speak to the BBC anonymously as he feared reprisals for reporting the killing to the police.

A spokesperson for the Prison Service said Lynch, who had been at HMP Moorland in Doncaster, died on Saturday.

A huge moorland wildfire which burned for three days is thought to have been caused by a disposable barbecue, West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue said.

Following the discovery, fire bosses have urged people not to take barbecues onto moorland, warning that those caught with one could face a fine of up to £2,500.
