30-Year-Old Man Found Dead in Car in East Delhi, Suspected Case of Drug Overdose

A tragic incident unfolded in east Delhi's Kalyanpuri area as the lifeless body of a 30-year-old man was discovered in a parked car on Thursday.

Police, who responded to a PCR call made to the East Vinod Nagar police station, recovered a syringe and several needles from the vehicle, leading them to suspect a case of drug overdose.

The PCR call had alerted authorities to a white WagonR car with registration number DL 6S 4950, which had been parked alongside the road since the previous evening.

Upon reaching the scene, the police team made a grim discovery-the body of a man inside the car. The deceased has been identified as Pradeep Kumar Jha, a resident of West Vinod Nagar and an employee at the well-known tech giant HCL in Bengaluru.

While preliminary investigation suggests that the cause of death may be attributed to a drug overdose, further details will be revealed following the postmortem examination, according to a police official.
