New Delhi, March 11 (SocialNews.XYZ) Delhi Police have registered a case of causing death by negligence after a man, who fell into a 40-feet deep borewell in Delhi's Keshopur area, was found dead by the rescuers.
The man fell in the borewell on Sunday and the rescuers had to dig a parallel hole to reach him.
“An FIR under section 304-A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) has been registered in Vikaspuri police station in this matter. Further investigation will be taken up. Efforts are on to identify the deceased person,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police (west) Vichitra Veer.
The borewell is located in the Delhi Jal Board (DJB) area in Keshopur Mandi.
