New Delhi, April 26: A day after a half-naked body of a 22-year-old woman was discovered in Nehru Place, another bare body of a young woman was found inside the Lok Nayak Hospital complex near Delhi Gate on Wednesday afternoon, creating a sensation among resident doctors and nurses.
Police said they had not yet established the woman's identity or the cause of death. The body was in a decomposed and swollen condition which indicated that the victim had died at least two-three days ago, they added.
The body, without any clothes on, was found near the hostels for resident doctors and nurses (behind the burns ward). Both hostels are inside a gated compound with several guards at the entrance and on rounds.
The lower half of the body, sources said, was intact while the upper half was disfigured - possibly the handiwork of a killer. The body did not have any burn injuries, police said. It was unlikely that the crime took place at the spot, said sources.
Cops have not been able to identify the woman, whose decomposed body was found inside LNJP Hospital. "As of now, inquest proceedings are on as per section 174 of CrPC. Details of missing persons in the district and nearby areas are being scanned to establish identity. We are waiting for the autopsy report to ascertain more details," said Devesh Chandra Srivastava, Additional CP, southwest.
Sources said if the woman was murdered, it was unlikely that the crime took place at the spot. There were no blood spots at the scene of crime and no footwear was recovered, police said.
The police received a call around 1pm from a labourer working in the area. The crime and forensic teams were called in to collect evidence and the body was being preserved at the hospital mortuary.
Residents said that the spot where the body was found was frequented by people at all time of the day.
A senior police officer told TOI that going by circumstantial evidence and the fact that the body was in a decomposed condition, two possibilities emerged.
"One, body of the victim was brought from outside and dumped from a moving car and, two, the woman was killed in one of the rooms on the campus and dumped late at night," he said.
Police suspect the woman may have been sexually assaulted. Police were waiting for medical reports to ascertain these details. The body was spotted by a labourer, identified as Sita.
"The body was swollen and had no clothes on. There were no blood spots. A lot of policemen and guards came to the spot and the body was quickly taken away," she told TOI.

Lastly, green tea outshines black tea in the level of antioxidants, however,
you will still receive a healthy dose when drinking black tea.
Coconut water is ideal in preventing dehydration,
especially when children get diarrhea. As organic foods
and food stores continue to increase in popularity, many are facing more competition than they had before.
