&No clue has been found so far and we have sent the body for post-mortem and his mobile phone to a digital forensic lab.&
&A sharp knife used for cutting meat was found near the body, both of his inner forearms had two separate deep slash marks, which probably meant the major veins in both the arms were cut,& said Superintendent of Police Tul Bahadur Kaki of LMPR, who is leading the investigation.
