Kolkata: A 56-year-old man, employed as a supervisor, was found dead with his throat slit inside his residence at Sonali Park in Bansdroni area of south suburban Kolkata. The victim has been identified as Ram Krishna Nandi.
According to joint CP (crime) Syed Waquar Raza, Nandi was last seen by his son who had come to meet him around 9.30 am on Friday. “Around 8 am on Saturday, two of his colleagues came to his residence to ask him to join them as they too were going to work. However, when they did not receive any response, they peeped into his room which did not have a door and found that he was lying dead,” said DC (Jadavpur) Bidisha Kalita.
Nandi was alone at his house as his son had recently started staying with Nandi’s elder brother who lives next door in order to look after his uncle. Nandi’s wife had passed away some years back.
Police sources said they are waiting for the postmortem report to ascertain the time and nature of his death. Bansdroni police is being assisted by the homicide section that sent a team to the spot.
