India, June 30 -- A day after the partially charred body of a 20-year-old man was found near the Narela-Bawana flyover in outer-north Delhi, police said the deceased was last seen leaving with his neighbour and two friends for a birthday party on Saturday night.

The deceased, identified as Kapil Dahiya, a resident of Swatantra Nagar, left home on his Royal Enfield motorcycle on Saturday evening. He lived in Delhi with his grandparents, while his parents reside in their village. "He was planning to apply for college admissions this year," a police officer said.
