Bengaluru: Police on Wednesday found a 35-year-old man dead under suspicious circumstances near the Anand Rao Circle in Upparpet, in the city centre.

The Upparpet police are treating the death of Timmaraju, hailing from Hassan district and residing with his family in Vijayanagar, as suicide, and have taken an unnatural death report.
