The Department of Correc-tions has released the name of the male inmate who was found dead at the Horizon Remand Centre.
He is 27-year-old Shawn Clarke, also known as Seon.
The Department of Corrections says Clarke was found dead with his hands and feet bound. His cellmates are now being interviewed.
In an interview with The Gleaner/Power 106 News, Commissioner of Corrections, Major Richard Reese, said Clarke, who was from Mahoe Drive, Kingston 11, was remanded on charges of illegal possession of firearm and ammunition and shooting with intent.
An autopsy is expected this week to determine the cause of death.
