According to the police, the incident is suspected to have occurred on Tuesday but came to light two days later when a foul odour began emanating from the locked room.
After Rohan failed to answer multiple phone calls, the landlord unlocked the door and found his bloated, decomposed body on the bed, with traces of blood nearby.
Pune's Chandannagar police were immediately alerted. Preliminary findings indicate that the death was caused by an electric shock from the malfunctioning electric hot water bag.
