NEW DELHI, APRIL 25. The police have not made any breakthrough in the mysterious murder case in which a charred body - believed to be that of an intern doctor with JPN hospital -- was found in a completely burnt Maruti car at Kapashera in South-West Delhi this past Saturday. The doctor had gone missing from his Dwarka house on Friday evening. The body, which was charred beyond recognition, was found in the vehicle around 9 a.m. With the help of its chassis number, the police found that it belonged to Raj Singh Chikara, a resident of Evergreen Apartments in Sector-7, Dwarka, who is a retired Punjab National Bank official. His brother, Satish Chikara, told the police that his nephew, Sumit, who had left in the car around 9-30 p.m. on Friday, had not returned yet. Before going out, he had told his sister that he would be back within 5 minutes. On the basis of his disclosure, the police suspect that the body is that of Sumit, an MBBS graduate from Maulana Azad Medical College. His mother works as a passport officer in the United States and he was also to go there for higher education. The police have recovered some shirt buttons and other personal belongings of the victim from the spot. Even though his mobile phone could not be traced, the police have managed to get some intercepts of calls made and received by Sumit before he was murdered. The police would question those with whom he had spoken on his mobile that day. While the post-mortem report is still awaited, the police suspect that Sumit was first strangled then set afire along with his car. Meanwhile, the police are trying to trace any witness to the incident.
