New Delhi:
One person was arrested and a murder case was registered late this evening - hours after the body of a man was recovered from the premises of former Union minister Kumari Selja's official bungalow in Delhi.
The victim, 42-year-old Sanjay Kumar, was married to a domestic help who works for the politician. The police said his injuries suggested he had struggled to resist an attack.
"There are head injuries, and also injuries on other parts of the body. We are looking at all angles," said Mukesh Meena, a senior officer handling the investigation.
Police sources say they suspect he was killed inside the MP's house.
Sanjay Kumar's relatives say they were with him last night when he received a phone call from an official on Kumari Selja's staff, asking him to return to the house to discuss plans for the politician and her entourage to vacate the bungalow.
Kumari Selja was at home this morning when the body was discovered at the servants' quarters of the bungalow allotted to her when she was Minister for Women and Child Welfare in Dr Manmohan Singh's government.
The politician left for Parliament - she is a member of the Rajya Sabha - after the police arrived.
Because Kumari Selja is still a member of the Rajya Sabha, she has not yet been asked to vacate the home she was allotted as a minister. She could be asked to move soon to a smaller house that a parliamentarian is entitled to.
