A murder case has been registered by the Malviya Nagar police station, and investigations are ongoing. Police are exploring all possible leads to uncover the circumstances of the crime. The deceased lived with his younger son in Panchsheel Park. The incident came to light when a car cleaner knocked on Kumar’s room seeking keys but received no response. When Kumar’s son, who lived in the next room, opened the door, he found his father lying on the floor. Authorities noted that nothing was stolen from the room.

A forensic team has inspected the location and found blood stains and footprints on the floor.
