The body was identified as that of Ravi Kumar, 39, and prima facie it appeared to be a case of murder. The exact cause of death will be known after post mortem report is received, said a police officer.
Ravi, who belonged to UP, used to live alone in his house at Vinay Enclave of Prem Nagar, Part III. He was seen by neighbours a few days ago, who informed police when a foul smell emanated from his house today, he said.
