Man Dies of Asphyxiation After Accidental Locking in Delhi Car
A young man named Javed was found dead inside a car at a train station in Delhi.
He was from Bihar and was in Delhi to catch a train home.
The car belonged to an engineer who parked it and went to work.
Later, someone brought lunch from the car and accidentally locked it with Javed inside.
Javed tried to get out but couldn't.
When the car owner finally opened the car later that day to go home, he found Javed unresponsive.
Police think Javed couldn't breathe because he was trapped in the locked car.
They are investigating what exactly happened.
A 28-year-old man, Javed, from Bihar was found dead inside a locked car at Delhi's Anand Vihar railway station.
Preliminary findings suggest the cause of death was asphyxiation due to being accidentally locked in the vehicle.
The car owner, an engineer named Guru Pratap, had parked the car and was unaware Javed was inside.
An office staffer, while retrieving a lunch bag, locked the car with Javed trapped within.
