Some were allegedly found with their hands tied and stripped of their clothes, spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani said
The deceased is survived by his wife, a 12-year-old daughter and a nine-year-old son.
After working in Saudi Arabia for 10 years, Ravi Kumar had returned home two years ago and has been living with his parents.
Venkateshwarlu said his son started complaining of breathlessness on June 23. He took him from one hospital to another but no one admitted him. "We went to 11 hospitals but they refused to admit without a Coronavirus test," he recalled.
The next day he took Ravi to a private lab and gave a sample for Covid-19 test. The same night his condition started worsening and his father took him to Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) but authorities there told him to go to Chest Hospital. He was finally admitted to that hospital.
Venkateshwarlu was staying in the hospital premises. He said his son sent him a selfie video late on the night of June 26. He watched this around 2.30 a.m. and went inside the ward but by then his son had breathed his last.
The next day hospital authorities handed over the body to the family and they performed the last rites. The report, which came later in the day, showed him to be Covid positive. Authorities quarantined his family members and were gathering information about 30 people who attended the funeral.
