A 36-year-old man was found dead inside his office in south Delhi’s Sangam Vihar on Sunday morning.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Vijay Kumar said Laxmi Narayan, a resident of Tigri, who worked as a cable operator.
“A police control room call was received at 9 a.m. regarding the incident. His body has been sent for post-mortem,” Mr. Kumar said, adding that no note was found.
Another relationship
During preliminary investigation, the police said Narayan, who was married, was also in a relationship with another woman with whom he was conversing over WhatsApp on the night of December 1.
“He had sent her pictures of him consuming liquor inside the office,” said a senior officer.
The officer said the woman is a house help, whom he had met six months ago, when he had gone to fix cable at a house where she was working. Narayan’s family said he had come home on December 1 afternoon for lunch and did not return after that.
“We kept trying his phone till early morning but he did not receive any calls. My elder son then went to his office and found him dead,” said victim’s mother, Somvati.
Inquest proceedings have been initiated, the police said.
