A 35-year-old software engineer was found dead under mysterious circumstances in his flat in Whitefield on Friday.

The deceased Sohan Haldar hailed from West Bengal and was working at a private firm. He shared the apartment in Prestige Shantiniketan with three of his friends.

The incident came to light when neighbours noticed foul smell emanating from the Sohar's flat which was locked. They then alerted the police, who rushed to the spot and broke open the door to find Sohar's highly decomposed body. There were no external injuries on the body and the police suspect that he might have smothered to death.

Inquiries with the neighbours revealed that Sohan and others had a party on Wednesday night, following which they had a heated argument.

The Kadugodi police who have taken up a case are on the lookout for his flat mates.
