An Army spokeswoman said officers were co-operating with the police but could not make any further comment at this stage.

Justin Hugheston-Roberts, a solicitor representing some of the families of men who have died at Catterick, said: "Another tragedy hits Catterick Garrison. What is going wrong at that camp?

"We've got a Defence Select Committee investigation going on at the moment so training establishments are in the spotlight and something else like this happens.

"The problems at Catterick are not going away.

"If this man did commit suicide we need to know what went wrong."

There have been 23 deaths of recruits at Catterick Garrison since 1994.
