A MAN was found hanging in woods next to a Huddersfield school.

A dog walker made the grim discovery in trees close to Royds Hall High School off Luck Lane in Paddock at 6.15am yesterday.

An inquest opened in Bradford later in the day and the man was named as 24-year-old Aftab Iqbal, of Beech Street in Paddock.

He was a single man who was born in Pakistan and his body was being flown back there today.

There are no suspicious circumstances.
