A decomposed body was discovered near the Hindon canal in east Delhi's Ghazipur area, adding a grim chapter to the locality's records. Wrapped in brown tape and sealed in a plastic bag, the male corpse raised immediate suspicions of foul play.

On Saturday evening, police responded to a report about a dubious object at a dry section of the canal, opposite Mulla Colony. Officers from Ghazipur Police Station arrived promptly to find the sealed plastic bag that concealed the body, which appeared to have been decomposing for several days.

With the scene cordoned off, crime and forensic teams were deployed to secure evidence. Investigators suspect the individual might have been killed elsewhere and dumped at the site to evade detection. Efforts to identify the victim continue, using regional police records, CCTV footage, and local intelligence. An FIR has been lodged, and investigations are progressing.
