A 35-year-old man was found dead in his WagonR car in New Ashok Nagar on Friday morning with the police suspecting that the victim allegedly perished to the toxic gases released by the air conditioner of the car.
The deceased, identified as Jitender Singh, a native of Garwal, Haryana, was found unconscious in his car on a road on Friday morning in Mayur Vihar Phase III by a pedestrian who made a call to the police control room. A team of cops arrived at the spot and the victim was taken to a nearby hospital where he was declared brought dead.
The officials said the post-mortem of the deceased was conducted at Lal Bahadur Shastri hospital and the preliminary report has revealed that there were no external injuries on the body, ruling out any assault. “The doctors are suggesting that the victim was apparently killed by toxic gases released by the air conditioner,” a senior police official said.
