Gurugram man death: Deceased a native of Nagpur

The police said that the man who died under mysterious circumstances has been identified as Rohit Lal (29), a native of Nagpur. He was employed with the Quality Council of India in New Delhi. The incident, as per reports, came to light on Thursday morning, when Lal failed to respond to repeated calls made by his colleague, and did not open the room’s door too. 

Colleague calls cops

According to police, Lal and his colleague would often commute to work together. However, on Thursday, Lal remained unresponsive. His colleague then alerted the police, who arrived at the spot and broke the door open. Upon entering the room, Lal was found lying motionless on his bed.
