A shocking discovery at a daycare centre in Mumbai's Malad has left residents stunned after police recovered the body of a 78-year-old man from a freezer, where it had allegedly been preserved for more than four years, a NBT report stated. The body was found at a daycare centre in Konkani Pada, Kurar Village, after residents complained of a foul smell coming from the premises on Monday evening.

According to police, the man died of cancer on June 9, 2022. His body was allegedly kept in the freezer in the hope that he could be brought back to life, police sources said. The discovery has raised questions about how the body remained inside the centre for so long and whether the authorities had inspected the premises properly.
