New Delhi, Mar 30: A 21-year old boy, who was missing since March 22, was found dead on Thursday.

The body of the deceased Delhi University student, identified as Ayush, was found in a drain here in Dwarka area.

On March 22, the Palam Village police station was informed that a message was sent to Ayush’s father asking for a sum of Rs. 50 lakh against his release by the accused. Immediately, a case was registered and taken for investigation.

There on, the abductor on March 26 had sent another message asking to deliver the money near Uttam Nagar area. Thereafter, 30 police teams in civilian clothing were deployed to nab the culprit when he comes to collect the ransom. However, the kidnapper didn't come to collect the money.

Police teams eventually recovered the missing boy’s body from a drain in Dwarka Sector 13 on March 28.

During the investigation, it was found that Ayush was a regular user of various dating apps and met strangers frequently. Based on these inputs, technical surveillance and CCTV footage collected from various locations, one accused was identified and arrested.

25-year-old Ishtiaq Ali, a resident of Uttam Nagar, confessed to the killing citing an altercation with the deceased. He further stated that he had made ransom calls to divert the attention of the parents and police to buy some time to dispose off the body.

The phone of the deceased and the vehicle used to dispose off the body were recovered.

Further investigation is underway.

Mathura, Jul 22: A local court in Uttar Pradesh's Mathura on Wednesday sentenced 11 policemen, including the then Deputy Superintendent of Police, to life imprisonment in a case pertaining to the murder of royal Raja Man Singh in 1985.

District Judge Sadhana Rani Thakur announced the life imprisonment sentence a day after holding them guilty of the killing. Three policemen were, however, acquitted. Four men died during the trial.

The policemen were convicted under Section 302 (murder), 148 (rioting) and 149 (Every member of unlawful assembly guilty of offence committed in prosecution of common object) of the Indian Penal Code.
