In a tragic incident in south Delhi's Dakshinpuri area, four air conditioning mechanics were found dead in their residence, allegedly due to suffocation from toxic fumes. Police suspect a chemical leak during AC servicing may have caused their deaths, though autopsies are pending to confirm the exact cause.

Zishan, a cousin of two victims, alerted the police when his calls went unanswered. Upon arrival, officers found the house locked from the inside, forcing entry with neighbors' help. The victims, all from Bareilly, were identified as Imran, Mohsin, Hasib, and Kapil.

The cramped living space also served as their workshop, contributing to poor ventilation. With no signs of forced entry or struggle, the investigation focuses on supporting financial distress faced by the victims, as autopsy and forensic analysis results are awaited.
