The body of Paras Bhasin (23) was recovered from Pandav Nagar railway tracks on Saturday with police initially claiming it to be a case of suicide. Paras' family, however, alleged that he was murdered.
Police claimed BBA student Paras' girlfriend, whom he secretly married in an Arya Samaj temple, gave them a suicide note jointly written by them in the last week of August after her family objected to their relationship.
The note said they both wanted to commit suicide on August 27, a day after she told her family about her marriage but they changed their plans later.
"The case is still open. There is no point in rushing into a conclusion. We are treating it as a murder case. We have examined the girl. She has given us a suicide note. We will corroborate and verify it.
"We will conduct an independent and thorough probe into the incident," Sanjay Kumar Jain, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime), said.
He also said the last call made to Paras was by a friend and they could not find any suspicious calls in his phone records. "We are awaiting the post mortem and forensic reports," he said.
