Congolese found dead in car, Nigerian on flyover
Two foreigners, one from Congo and the other from Nigeria, were found dead in the city under mysterious circumstances. A 25-year-old Congolese was found murdered in a car in Dwarka on Saturday.
Additional commissioner of police (southwest) Anil Kumar Ojha said the deceased has been identified as Yen, a Congo national. The police was informed about a body in a car in Dwarka Sector 5.
The body bore multiple injury marks, three of which appeared to be gun wounds. A police official said only autopsy will reveal if he was shot dead or not. “He has three wounds that look likes bullet injuries but we can’t say he was shot dead,” said Mr Ojha.
Yen’s body was sent to the DDU Hospital for post-mortem and an FIR of murder was lodged in at the Dwarka South police station. A police source said the deceased was in garment business and had been living in Dwarka Sector 8 for over a year.
The owner of the Esteem car in which the body was found is said to be of an Indian friend of the deceased. The police refused to divulge information about the car owner but sources said he was called for interrogation. “The motive behind murder is not clear. We don’t think he was killed for robbery,” said Mr Ojha.
Meanwhile, a Nigerian who went missing after visiting Fortis Hospital in Shalimar Bagh was found dead in Jamia Nagar. The police said that it was waiting for the autopsy report to know the exact reason for his death. The deceased, identified as Justin Okafir, came to India for treatment. He was living in Shalimar Bagh and was undergoing treatment at Fortis Hospital.
“On August 17, Justin went missing from Shalimar Bagh and his family lodged a missing report. He was found lying dead on Jangpura flyover on August 26,” said the police official.
