According to the police, Garg had checked into the hotel earlier in the day and hosted a party. After the gathering, he suddenly fell unconscious.

Garg’s family, however, claimed that they were the ones who took him to the hospital. “My son’s body was totally blue when we checked him. We feel that he was murdered,” said Vikas Jain, a family friend.

The victim’s father, Narender Kumar Garg, said: “I personally feel that my son was drugged and killed by those who were with him during the party.” He urged the police to conduct a thorough investigation and hold those responsible accountable.

The police are working to identify those who attended the party and question them to establish the sequence of events that led to Garg’s death.
