A father who murdered his estranged daughter by running her over in his car has died in prison, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman has said.
Nigel Malt, 47, was jailed in 2022 for the killing of his 19-year-old daughter Lauren after he deliberately ran her over twice following a family row.
The murderer died at category B prison HMP Gartree on April 29. A cause of death has not yet been released.
The Prisons and Probation Ombudsman has launched an investigation into his death, as is standard after a prisoner dies in custody.
Malt was sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty in July 2022 of crushing Lauren to death in his car while 'totally consumed by anger'.
