Northamptonshire Police launched a murder investigation after attending the prison the following day.

A 20-year-old inmate was arrested on suspicion of murder but has since been released on police bail.

Det Ch Insp Johnny Campbell described the death as a "tragic incident".

It cost £253m to build. It opened in 2022 and houses about 1,700 inmates.
