The body of a COVID-19 patient, who had gone missing from the prestigious Sunderlal Hospital at the Varanasi's Banaras Hindu University on Sunday, was found last night near a duct of the hospital's main building leading to protests from the man's family, who have accused the hospital of foul play. The man was admitted to the BHU's trauma centre a week ago, but was shifted to the covid ward after he tested positive for the novel coronavirus. On Sunday, he went missing from the ward and the police was informed. The patient's body was found on Monday night.
