The Covid-19 test they did here was positive.
He suffered from respiratory failure due to illness. Then we received the news of the death. After burying the body, we carefully put the officers’ special protective clothing inside the coffin and burned it with his uncle. This is the first time that an event of this type has happened to us. Covid-19 positive was written on his coffin. The authorities asked us to burn the coffin as a precautionary measure. “We burn the coffin and the clothes we wear after the burial.”
