A mutilated body of a man with his head and limbs severed was found in a water canal in Rohini on Friday morning, the police said.

According to the police, a PCR call was received at the KNK Marg police station reporting that a body was lying in the Haiderpur Water Canal. When officers reached the spot, they found the dismembered body of a man, estimated to be between 30 and 35 years old.

“Old cuts were also observed on both arms. The person appeared to have died two days ago,” a police officer said. A crime team and a forensic science team were called to inspect the area and collect evidence. The body was later shifted to the mortuary at Dr. BSA Hospital for preservation and post-mortem examination.

An FIR has been registered and further investigation is under way. The police said efforts are being made to “ascertain the identity of the deceased using human intelligence inputs and technical surveillance”.
