His wife and children have gone to their native place. He sent his brother to see the house and he found today morning that the house was burgled and everything was scattered on teh ground.
The police are investigating the case.
The house owner said that he got infected with the virus during work. The locals say that the police should have posted at least a constable at the place after having sealed the house.
