New Delhi [India], February 9 (ANI): A 35-year-old man was found dead in a drain in New Delhi's Budh Vihar, police said on Thursday.
The deceased has been identified as Rajender alias Lalla, a resident of Shyam Colony, Budh Vihar, Phase-1, New Delhi.

On inquiry with locals, police said, it was found that the deceased used to "drink regularly".
A crime team also inspected the spot and took photographs at the scene, an official said.
A PCR call was received at the Vijay Vihar police station at 8:20 am informing about a body lying in a drain near H2/8, Budh Vihar, Phase-1.
