A person has been found dead in Pulchok of Lalitpur.
Ram Bahadur Chhetri (62), a permanent resident of Darjeeling in India and currently operating a momo shop in Pulchok, was found dead inside his residence in Pulchok of Lalitpur this morning, according to DSP Angur GC of the Lalitpur District Police Range.
“As he did not appear since last night, his neighbours knocked his today,” GC says, “As the door did not open, they informed the police.”
