New Delhi: A day after the police registered a case of murder in the Paras Bhasin death, the crime scene has become clearer. The police now say his body disintegrated under the force of the train so much so that his head was pushed into his chest cavity.

DCP (Crime and Railways) Sanjay Jain said, "The body was hit by a moving train. It is too early to comment on suicide or murder."

Paras' death is being treated as suspicious because it came just a week after his wife told her unwilling family about their marriage. While the police haven't charged anyone, they are questioning the girl's family. Paras Bhasin's own family says they are responsible for his death.

The family is convinced that it is a murder while the police has kept its options open But the fact remains that the BBA student Paras was under considerable stress since the time the girl's family got to know about their marriage.
