The BMC's decision to isolate the neighbours of a COVID-19 positive police constable and not her parents has bewildered one of the quarantined people. The man has alleged that the facility is poorly maintained, and asked why weren't they allowed to home-quarantine.

On June 26, a 32-year-old woman constable of the Malvani police station tested positive for the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). She was admitted to the quarantine centre for police at Marol. The BMC then sent 15 neighbours to a quarantine facility three days ago, but they left the constable's parents at home.
