A French man who faced death by firing squad killed himself in prison after being accused of molesting more than 300 children and beating those who refused to have sex with him.   

Francois Camille Abello, 65, was found last Thursday unresponsive inside his cell at a detention centre in Jakarta, said police spokesman Yusri Yunus.

'After three days of treatment, he was pronounced dead,' Yunus told reporters on Monday.
