New Delhi, 9 Feb 2026 — A chilling mystery has gripped west Delhi after three people were discovered dead inside a parked car near the Peeragarhi flyover on Sunday afternoon, triggering a major police investigation into the cause of their deaths.
Discovery of Bodies: What Happened on 8 Feb 2026
At around 3:50 pm on Sunday, 8 February 2026, police received a PCR call about a parked car near the Peeragarhi flyover in northwest Delhi, with occupants who were unresponsive and not responding to calls.
Emergency teams, including the fire brigade, rushed to the spot and found the car locked from the inside with three people inside. After breaking into the vehicle, authorities found all three occupants dead and motionless.
Police immediately cordoned off the scene, and both forensic and crime teams were called to collect evidence and begin an investigation into how and why the deaths occurred.
Identities of the Deceased: Who Were They?
The three victims have been officially identified by police after initial inquiries:
- Randhir (76) — Owner of the vehicle and resident of Baprola, Delhi
- Shiv Naresh Singh (47) — Resident of Baprola, Delhi
- Laxmi Devi (40) — Resident of Jahangirpuri, Delhi
Their bodies were discovered inside what has been described in local reports as a parked Tata vehicle (Tata Tiago/Tavera) on the service lane near the flyover.
Police Investigation: Suicide or Poisoning?
Initial police statements indicate that there were no visible external injuries on any of the bodies, and all valuables — including phones and personal items — were untouched in the vehicle. This has raised the possibility that the deaths may have been the result of poisoning or a suicide pact, though law enforcement is treating the case with caution.
A senior police official told reporters that the situation “prima facie appears to be a suicide,” but emphasised that further investigation is essential before any conclusions are drawn.
Forensic Evidence, CCTV, and Ongoing Procedures
Delhi Police have launched a multi-angle investigation into the case:
- Forensics teams are inspecting the car for any traces of toxic substances, fingerprints, or other critical evidence.
- CCTV footage from nearby traffic cameras and the flyover area is being reviewed to track the vehicle’s movement and the activities of the three victims prior to the discovery.
- Police are in the process of checking call records and electronic data to reconstruct timelines and determine possible connections among the deceased.
Experts confirm that post-mortem and toxicology reports will be crucial in establishing whether poisoning, carbon monoxide inhalation, or other causes played any role in the deaths.
Local Reaction: Shock, Questions, and Concern
The area around the Peeragarhi flyover, usually buzzing with traffic in the afternoon, fell silent as the scene unfolded and police blocked off the area for hours. Many residents expressed shock, with questions about why three adults were together in a parked car and whether they were known to one another.
At this stage, police have not released any suicide note or direct evidence of intent. Whether the three were relatives, acquaintances, or connected in other ways remains under investigation.
What Authorities Have Confirmed So Far
- Three adults — two men and one woman — were found dead inside a car on Peeragarhi flyover.
- No visible injuries or signs of external violence were spotted.
- All valuables and personal items were intact inside the vehicle.
- Police are investigating suicide, poisoning, and other causes.
- Forensic and CCTV analysis is underway to reconstruct events.
Why This Case Is Raising Serious Questions
While instances of deaths in parked vehicles are rare, experts point out:
- Carbon monoxide poisoning and sealed environments can be fatal, especially in confined spaces with running engines.
- Suicide pacts involving multiple individuals have complex psychological and social triggers that authorities must explore.
- If foul play is involved, it would represent a major criminal act in a public space.
Police say none of these possibilities can be ruled out until post-mortem and toxicology reports are concluded.
