Meerut (Uttar Pradesh), July 4 A Covid victim's body has been found to be lying in the mortuary for more than 75 days now in the Lala Lajpat Rai Memorial Medical College (LLRMMC) in Meerut, because his wife could not pay Rs 15,000.The victim, Naresh, 29, died of Covid on April 15.His wife Gudiya, came from Basti district to collect her husband's body but was reportedly asked to pay Rs 15,000."The doctors asked for Rs 15,000 but I did not have the money. They said they would cremate the body," she told reporters.The hospital, meanwhile, has denied the allegations.Dr Vidit Dikshit, who oversees the disposal of bodies at the hospital, said "The patient was accompanied by his brother, Vijay. When the patient died on April 15, we called up the number Vijay had given us. It was switched off. The allegation that money was demanded is false.

Later, we sought help from the police and the phone number that had been given was put under surveillance," he added.Finally, Gudiya was traced and called to Hapur where the man's cremation was done in her presence two days ago.Hapur District Magistrate Anuj Singh confirmed that Gudiya came to Hapur for her husband's last rites.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
