The deceased, identified as Zingram Kengo, was from Tata Institute of Social Sciences. He had come to Delhi just months ago and was living in Kotla Mubarakpur in a rented accommodation.
"The body was found last night in a pool of blood on the mat by his landlord's brother at around 9:30 PM. Police were informed at 10 PM following which a team was rushed to the spot," said a police official.
Crime and forensic teams visited the spot and collected evidence.
"Prima facie, it does not appear linked to robbery. We are investigating the case from all possible angles," he said.
