The driver of a train who found the body lying beside the track informed the railway police. Subsequently, forensic experts reached the spot. The police found a girl’s photo held tightly by the youth in his palm. He died of head injury. No document or wallet was recovered from the youth who was wearing a blue shirt and cream coloured trousers. Nishatpura police have registered a case and begun investigation. Efforts are on to identify him.
