The police reached Krishna Colony and opened it. When the police entered the room, they found a youth in an unusual condition. The youth was identified as Kuldeep Verma, resident of Bilkisganj in Sehore district, had tied his hands with live wire and had put the plug in a socket. After that, he switched it on with the help of a broom. As the current flowed, he died of electric shock.

The police have recovered the body and have registered the case. The police did not find any suicide note. The police have seized the mobile phone of the victim.

Kuldeep was a science graduate and was planning to take admission in pharmacy course. He was living in Bhopal to complete his studies. He was to apply for the admission process on Monday.
