The Delhi police continue to wait for a response from the Switzerland Embassy regarding information about a murder victim, Nina Berger, believed to be a Swiss national, whose body was recovered from west Delhi on Friday.
“The police have been in touch with the embassy officials. The embassy officials were asked to identify the body. However, they have not received any response so far,” DCP (West) Vichitra Veer said.
“We are waiting for her family to identify the body so that the process of autopsy examination could be started,” he added.
Berger’s body, which was found wrapped in plastic sheets with her limbs tied with iron chains near a school in Tilak Nagar, is still preserved in a mortuary.
The police have arrested 33-year-old Gurpreet Singh for the murder. “The accused revealed during interrogation that he killed Berger after she turned down his marriage proposal,” a senior officer said.
The police are conducting psychoanalysis tests on the accused as he has frequently changed his statements regarding the sequence of the crime.
“We have to ascertain the exact sequence of the events, starting from how he met the woman to why he killed her,” the officer said.
