The police identified the dead man as 48-year-old Chinese national Tanxioahua, who had been living in India for around six months now.

"After due legal proceedings, the body was sent for post-mortem on January 3. A detailed investigation into the case is underway," a police spokesperson said.

Tanxioahua lived in a rented house in Sector 92, which he shared with colleagues and fellow countrymen. He worked as an engineer at a company in Sector 85 which makes screens for mobile phones, according to a local policeman.

"After the party on December 31, the Chinese national collapsed and was admitted to a private hospital by his friends. The cause of the death would be known once the post-mortem report is received," the official told PTI.

The party was held at the house after which he went to sleep but was found unconscious on the new year's morning, the official said.

On delay in the post-mortem, the police official said the matter was reported to the Chinese Embassy in Delhi after which the family of Tanxioahua was contacted to take their consent for autopsy and other legal proceedings here.
