Gurugram, Aug. 1 -- A 32-year-old man drowned while taking a bath in the overflowing canal near Dhankot, police said on Thursday. The incident took place between 5pm and 5.30pm on Wednesday but the body could be fished out after nearly 18 hours of search operation and four kilometres away from the spot where he had actually drowned. Police identified the deceased as Kharak Singh, a resident of Ashok Vihar Phase III in the city. He worked as a delivery executive, they said. Gurugram police public relations officer, Sandeep Kumar, said Singh had reached the canal with two more people on Wednesday evening, one of whom was his nephew. "They had consumed liquor on the embankment and had stepped into the canal to bathe. Singh went too deep and slipped following which he drowned as the canal was already overflowing due to heavy rain," he said. "State disaster response force personnel equipped with oxygen cylinders stepped into the canal on Thursday and after several hours of search, Singh's body was located about 4km ahead," Kumar said. Police said his body was handed over to the family after an autopsy on Thursday and an investigation was underway at the Rajendra Park police station....
