Warsaw police investigate death of 31-year-old Indian national found in Ochota park

Discovery in Park Pięciu Sióstr

A pedestrian walking through Park Pięciu Sióstr in the Ochota district of Warsaw came across the body of an unresponsive man on Friday morning, 2 October 2026. The local resident observed severe facial trauma and saw various personal items scattered across the grass near the body. Following the discovery, the witness immediately contacted emergency services by calling 112 to report the situation to local dispatchers. Emergency operators received the alert at 7:00 AM regarding an individual lying motionless on the park grounds. Both a police patrol unit and a specialized medical rescue team were dispatched to the Ochota location. Medical personnel examined the individual on site and confirmed the man had died before assistance arrived.

Emergency response and identity confirmation

Police officers secured the immediate area within Park Pięciu Sióstr to preserve physical evidence and enable a comprehensive on-site inquiry. Law enforcement officials established the identity of the deceased as a 31-year-old citizen of India. Aspirant Małgorzata Gębczyńska, press officer for the Ochota district police, provided details regarding the initial notification and the dispatched units.

At 7:00 we received information that a man was lying in Park Pięciu Sióstr. Our patrol and a medical rescue team were dispatched to the scene. It turned out that the man was dead. The deceased is a 31-year-old citizen of India.

Gębczyńska stated that forensic procedures and scene management involving the prosecutor were initiated immediately at the location. Police investigators began operating under the direct supervision of the prosecution to establish the full timeline of the fatality.

Evidence and exclusion of robbery motive

During the examination of the scene, officers documented severe injuries to the victim's face and noted the personal objects scattered around the body. Search procedures revealed that the 31-year-old man was still in possession of his identification documents and other valuable personal belongings. Based on the presence of these intact documents and valuables, police dismissed robbery as the motive behind the fatal incident. Forensic technicians collected evidence from the park grounds to establish the circumstances that resulted in the fatal injuries. Officers continue to review evidence recovered from the scene to determine the exact sequence of events.

Prosecution review and cause of death

The District Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw took formal supervision over the investigation to establish the legal circumstances surrounding the death. District Prosecutor's Office spokesperson Piotr Skiba confirmed that authorities conducted an initial visual inspection of the victim's body. Skiba stated that formal conclusions regarding the cause of death cannot be drawn during the opening phase of the case.

At the current stage, due to the fact that the case files have not yet reached the prosecutor's office and due to the initial stage of the proceedings, it is not possible to determine the cause of death.

Prosecutors are waiting for the transfer of the complete operational file from district police before scheduling subsequent procedural actions and formal medical examinations.
