Delhi: Three people have been arrested in connection with the alleged murder of a 25-year-old man whose body was found with his hands tied behind his back in a public park in Delhi’s Vijay Vihar area, police said on Monday.
The body was discovered in Maharana Pratap Park around 5 AM on June 29, after a PCR call alerted police to a suspicious object lying in the park.
“When officers reached the spot, they found the man dead with his hands bound using a white gamcha (cotton cloth), indicating he had been restrained and killed in a planned attack,” said a senior police officer.
A murder case was registered under Section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) at Vijay Vihar police station, and an investigation was launched.
