Noida: At least two mourners, who visited the family of Sudiksha Bhati after her death, have tested positive for Covid-19, the police said on Friday.

Bhati family has called it a conspiracy against them.

Sudiksha, who was a bright student and bagged scholarship to pursue higher education in the United States, had died in a road accident in Bulandshahr on August 10.

Her family alleged that she was being harassed by two bike-borne men at the time of the accident.

However, the Bulandshahr police have registered an FIR against two unknown persons for rash driving and death due to negligence.

“For now two people have tested positive and all necessary measures are being taken to control the situation.

Several more tests have been carried out and even the family will be tested,” said deputy commissioner of police, zone 2, Harish Chander.

A police spokesperson said the family has had many visitors in the last few days.
