It is not yet known whether the friend, who has been arrested, had played a prank or he intended to murder the man.

According to police, Mohammed Aslam, 23, and his friend Farhan, would clean each other’s clothes by using an air compressor after finishing their shift at an export firm in Dhanupura village.

On Wednesday evening, the two were cleaning up before going home, when Farhan allegedly pumped air into Aslam’s rectum.

After Aslam started feeling unwell, Farhan took him home but a short while later, Aslam’s condition deteriorated and his family rushed him to hospital. He died due to internal injuries on Thursday.

Aslam had been married six months ago and is survived by his mother, wife and two unmarried sisters.
