The body of a businessman from Rajasthan was found at a hotel in Lucknow, following which the police here initiated an investigation, an official said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police (Lucknow East), Pankaj Kumar Singh, told PTI that the man has been identified as Nilesh Bhandari, a 44-year-old resident of Jalore district in Rajasthan.<\/p>\n
Bhandari had checked into a hotel in the Kamta area of the city two days ago with a female companion. His body was discovered on Monday, while the woman accompanying him was missing. Efforts are underway to trace her whereabouts, Singh added.<\/p>\n
“Bhandari was a married man, and his family resides in Jalore,” Singh said.<\/p>\n
On Monday, the Kamta-based Hotel Saffron informed the police about the death of a guest who had been staying there for two days. A case was immediately registered at the local Chinhat police station.<\/p>\n
The body has been sent for a postmortem examination after preliminary proceedings, Singh said.<\/p>\n
“No visible injury marks were found on the body. The man’s family has been informed, and legal proceedings will follow based on the evidence,” he said.<\/p>\n
According to local police officials, the body was found naked in the bathroom of the hotel room. They also confirmed that efforts to locate the missing woman companion are ongoing.<\/p>\n
Singh said the family members of Bhandari have reached Lucknow and further legal proceedings were being carried out.<\/p>\n
The investigation is ongoing into the case, the police added.<\/p>\n
