Bangalore, June 27: The mysterious death of Pawan Kumar Anjaiah, a software engineer from Bangalore, in Delaware, US, on June 19, has left his parents here completely shaken, even as the Delaware police claimed it was a suicide triggered by his alleged murder of an American woman.

The mystery only deepened with the police attributing the 26-year-old’s death to drug abuse and excess consumption of alcohol, a claim vociferously dismissed by his parents who stay in Bangalore.

The police collected body samples and sent them to pathology to ascertain the exact name and quantity of the drugs consumed. Pawan’s body has been kept in a freezer of a local hospital in Belleville, sources said.

Pawan, a software engineer with Cognizant Technologies, was found dead inside the room of a lodge on June 19 around 1:30 pm in Belleville city in Wayne County in the US state of Michigan.

Pawan had flown to the United States with a ‘H-1B’visa in March 2011 and was scheduled to return in the first week of July.

The Delaware police had issued an arrest warrant against him for allegedly stabbing a 26-year-old teacher, identified as Danielle Mehlman, mother of a four-year-old boy at Dewey Beach, in what was the first murder in the coastal town’s history.

Pawan reportedly met her through an online dating website. Pawan’s family members in Bangalore said they did not know why Pawan ended life and were not willing to buy the suicide theory.
