The body of a Class 12 student, who had been missing for last two days from New Delhi, was found on railway tracks in Gurugram, the police said on Thursday.
They said that Diwakar, a resident of RK Puram in South Delhi, had left for his school from his residence on Tuesday but did not return.
“On the Wednesday night, the family (Diwakar’s) was informed by the Gurugram Police about a body being found on the railway tracks in Sector-9. The family members identified the body as that of Diwakar,” a Delhi Police officer said.
He said Diwakar’s mouth was stuffed with handkerchief and his shoelaces were tied with the railway track. “We are suspecting foul play. His family members suspect that he has been murdered,” police said.
Mahesh, a family member, said Diwakar was a brilliant student and had no personal animosity with anyone.
The Delhi Police officer added, “The case is being probed from all possible angles with help of the Gurugram Police.”
