The friends broke open the door when the 22-year-old athlete did not answer the doorbell. They found his body inside the apartment, the official said.

Bhadoria said no suicide note was found in the house. At this stage, police cannot say if it is suspicious, according to the official.

The reason for Verma’s death can be ascertained only after post-mortem, he said.
