Mumbai:
The security guard at Mumbai University, Kalina was in for a rude shock when he found a semi-naked body of an unidentified man in the bushes opposite the examination hall, on Monday night.
Around 7 pm, the guard on duty found a body of a man in his mid 30s in his underwear with his hands tied behind his back. He called the Bandra Kurla police to investigate the matter. The police filed a murder case and sent the body for a medical examination on Tuesday.
Kishen Shelke, inspector at Bandra Kurla police station, said, "When we reached the spot, we found him in his underwear with his hands tied behind, which is suspicious in nature. Our preliminary investigations told us that he suffered an injury to his head. We have registered a murder case and are investigating the matter."
The investigating officials told MiD DAY that they believed that the unidentified victim was killed outside the university and his body was dumped on campus. They also revealed that they had already questioned the security guard and few other officials, but were yet to identify the victim.
According to the police, the victim was hit on the head and back with a blunt object, which could have been the cause of death.
"The victim was killed at least two days ago, as the body had started to decompose," revealed one of the authorities.
The police have taken the body to Sion Hospital and are awaiting the post mortem results.
The police claim that the alleged murder is not the handiwork of one person and think that the motive for the murder could be revenge.
