A woman used to stay with him in the room which he had rented around seven years ago, said neighbours. Sources said the girl had left for a wedding on Sunday and had not returned since. His parents, however, did not suspect any foul play and were handed over the body after post-mortem examination.

Viscara samples were taken by experts from the Central Forensic Sciences Laboratory who would file a report.
