In a horrifying incident, a 24-year-old man's body was recovered with ears and eyes missing in bushes in southeast Delhi's Pul Prahladpur on Friday.
The deceased, who has been identified as Punit, is a resident of Sangam Vihar.
When police reached the spot, they found bruises all over his forehead and a spot near his neck, with the eyes and ears missing.
It seems that the ears and eyes were bitten off by animals, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Southeast) Chinmoy Biswal said.
A small foil (suspected to be containing narcotics), some cash, a small iron chain and some papers were found on searching the body, he said, adding during enquiry, it was revealed that the man was a smack addict and used to visit such abandoned places.
Punit used to move door to door repairing zippers of bags. His brother and friends revealed that he had been addicted to smack for the last three to four years, police said.
