"During the investigation, the local police have informed us that Rashed Khan's body has already been buried by another family on June 10. Mohammed, another person who died in Gandhi Hospital due to COVID-19, his family got confused and took Rashed's body instead of Mohammed's body to a graveyard and performed the final rituals," said Aamir.
