Three Bodies Discovered in Parked Car Near Delhi's Peeragarhi Flyover
In a shocking incident that has gripped the capital, three individuals were found dead inside a car parked near the Peeragarhi flyover in west Delhi on Sunday afternoon. The discovery has prompted a major police investigation to determine whether the case involves a tragic triple suicide or a sinister homicide.
Police Respond to Disturbing Call
Delhi Police received an urgent call around 3:50 PM, alerting them to a concerning situation. The caller reported that three people sitting inside a car appeared unresponsive and possibly unconscious. Officers rushed to the scene, locating the vehicle near one of the service lanes adjacent to the flyover.
Upon forcing the car open, the police made a grim discovery. All three occupants were deceased, and a powerful odor of what was described as a "poisonous substance" permeated the interior of the vehicle. The immediate presence of this smell raised immediate red flags for the investigating teams.
Victims Identified as Local Residents
The deceased have been officially identified as Randhir Singh (76), a resident of Baprola village, Shiv Naresh Singh (47), also from Baprola, and Laxmi Devi (40). According to police statements, Randhir Singh was found positioned in the driver's seat, while the other two victims were seated in the rear of the car. The vehicle itself is registered to one of the victims, though authorities have not specified which one.
Forensic Teams Scour the Scene for Clues
In response to the discovery, police swiftly mobilized specialized crime and forensic teams to conduct a thorough examination of both the vehicle and the surrounding area. Critical evidence was meticulously collected from the spot. Documents recovered from inside the car played a key role in helping investigators establish the identities of the three individuals.
Police made contact with the family of Randhir Singh. A relative arrived at the location to formally identify Randhir and Shiv Naresh Singh. It was clarified that these two men, while acquainted, are not related by blood. However, the relative was unable to provide any information regarding the connection between Laxmi Devi and the two male victims, adding a layer of mystery to the case.
Valuables Found Intact, Bottle Sent for Analysis
Notably, police reported that cash, mobile phones, and jewellery worn by the woman were all found intact inside the car. The absence of any apparent theft or robbery complicates the initial assessment of the incident. Forensic experts also discovered a soft drink bottle within the vehicle. This bottle has been sent for detailed forensic examination to determine if a toxic or poisonous substance was mixed into the beverage.
Autopsy Awaited to Determine Cause of Death
The bodies of all three victims have been sent for postmortem examination. Police officials have emphasized that the exact cause of death will only be confirmed after the autopsy reports are received and a comprehensive forensic analysis is completed. The investigation remains active and ongoing as authorities piece together the events leading to this tragic discovery in west Delhi.
