NEW DELHI, Dec 21, (Agencies): The body of Gurashman Singh Bhatia, an Indian student reported missing after a night out with friends last Thursday, December 14, was found by police divers in a lake in the Canary Wharf area of east London. According to the United Kingdom's Metropolitan Police, they were now appealing for information to piece together Bhatia's last movements.
The body of the 23-year-old was found as the officers carried out "extensive enquiries" and scanned CCTV videos, spoke to witnesses and analyzed phone and financial data.
Water searches were also carried out in the area and a body believed to be that of Bhatia was recovered by police divers in the water in South Quay.
"Gurashman’s death is being treated as unexpected, and while there is nothing to suggest it was suspicious, we will ensure our investigation is as thorough as possible to confirm this," Detective Chief Superintendent (DCI) James Conway, responsible for local policing in the Tower Hamlets area of Canary Wharf.
