A PCR call was made around 2.15 am today that a person wearing a face mask and gloves fell from the fifth floor flat of the building in the G Block at Nivedita Kunj, said a senior police officer.
When police reached there, they found the man was lying injured and rushed him to the AIIMS trauma centre where he was declared brought dead by the doctors, said the official.
Pawan belonged to Aligarh in Uttar Pradesh, he said.
During probe, it was revealed that Pawan had entered into the fifth floor the flat of a power ministry engineer, Ashok Rajput, late night through a balcony, he said.
The engineer and his wife woke up as the accused tried to look for valuables and confronted him. "Ashok Rajput tried to catch the intruder and a scuffle took place in which he sustained some injuries and fell from the balcony while trying to escape," the officer said.
