The deceased constable, Desh Deepak Kumar, 30, was a resident of Firozabad.

He used to live in a rented room near the police station. A fellow constable reached his room when he did not respond to calls.

The police spokesman said that the constable’s family had been informed and the body was sent for post-mortem.

He said that since there was no forced entry in the room, it appeared that someone close to the deceased had committed the crime.

The constable was married two months ago.
