Gurugram, Dec 15 (IANS): A patrolling team of the Gurugram Police recovered a body of a man with injury marks on his face in the Sector 29 area, police said on Tuesday.

According to the police, Constable Ajay Kumar, who was posted in a police control room, was on patrol with other police personnel on Monday when he located the body of a man lying in a pool of blood in a bush in front of the Leisure Valley park.

Kumar immediately informed the police control room about the body. A police team along with a forensic expert visited the spot and collected the evidence and information about the deceased.

The body has been kept in the mortuary for medical examination. A case of murder under various sections of the IPC has been registered against an unknown person at Sector 29 police station, he said.
