New Delhi, Feb 15, 2016: A 27-year-old man from Delhi, who had gone to Gurgaon to celebrate Valentine’s Day with a Facebook friend, was thrown off the fourth floor of an apartment building by two people in the upscale Sushant Lok area on Saturday night.

As per the complaint that was registered on the basis of the girl’s statement, victim Ishwar alias Nishant had constantly been in touch with her for past seven months and had asked her to celebrate Valentine’s Day with him in Gurgaon. She met him at the Huda City Centre metro station on Saturday before going to the multi-storey building in Sushant Lok area.

"While they were talking to each other in the flat, the girl’s brother-in-law identified as Ramesh (30) and his driver Anil Kumar (25) reached there. On seeing Ishwar in the flat, the duo brutally assaulted him in a fit of rage before taking him to the balcony, from where they pushed him off," said Sandeep Ahlawat, SHO of Sushant Lok police station.

An FIR has been registered against the duo under Section 302, 201 and 34 of the IPC at the Sushant Lok police station.
