A migrant from Peru that was found hanged in a New York City park is suspected of raping his teenage relative.
The New York Post reported Manuel Delgado, 43, an asylum seeker from Peru, is believed to have committed suicide on October 9.
Delgado’s death came after his family members discovered his alleged sex crimes against his teenage relative.
After family members notified police of Delgado allegedly raping the teen, investigators advised the girl to call Delgado while authorities recorded it.
During the call, the teen told Delgado she was going to the police, and he responded that he wanted to meet at “the spot where we used to go.”
Authorities later found Delgado dead in a wooded area in Pelham Bay Park, where Delgado asked the teen to meet up.

Per The New York Post:
The dead man found hanged from a tree inside a Bronx park last month is a migrant suspected of repeatedly raping a teen relative, law enforcement sources told The Post Thurday.
Manuel Delgado, 43 — an asylum seeker from Peru who had lived in the city for less than a year — is believed to have taken his own life inside Pelham Bay Park on Oct. 9 after his family found out about his alleged ongoing relationship with the teen and reported it to police, the sources said.
Investigators advised the girl to call Delgado while the conversation was being taped, according to the sources.
During the call, the teen allegedly told Delgado she was going to go to the police — but he sickeningly told her he wanted to meet at “the spot where we used to go,” the sources said.
Once he arrived at the spot — a wooded area at Orchard Beach Road and Bartow Circle — he committed suicide, according to the sources.
It was reported when authorities discovered Delgado’s body; he had multiple cuts on his neck, stomach, and forearm.
A roommate of Delgado’s further shared that he received a text from Delgado saying he stabbed himself.
Before his death, Delgado was never officially charged with rape.
