The family members sharply questioned about the use of sealing down after five days of death and also the purpose of revealing the corona-positive status long after the funeral.

The family members said they were told that the woman did not show any symptoms of coronavirus. The officials have now come out with a corona-positive report. This has given rise to worry among the family members and others who participated in the funeral and also those who came into contact with these people.
