Balasore: Delhi Police on Monday arrested a man from Nilagiri area in Balasore district for alleged involvement in the burglary of over Rs 1.10 crore from a builder's residence in the national capital. The accused, Kashinath Mallik (32), of Bhimei village under Iswarpur police outpost, was nabbed after he fled to Odisha with a substantial share of the stolen cash. Police sources said Kashinath, who was employed as a cook at the builder's residence, conspired with two other individuals from his village — Ashutosh Mallick (27) and Jagabandhu Mallick (30) — both working as domestic help in the same house. The trio allegedly committed the theft and planned their escape to Odisha with the money. The case began to unravel when Ashutosh was arrested at Delhi railway station while trying to flee. Shortly after, Jagabandhu was apprehended at Patna bus stand with Rs 45 lakh. Following their interrogation, police found the location of Kashinath's hideout. A Delhi Police team reached Nilagiri and arrested Kashinath from Bhimei. During the operation, officials recovered Rs 30.5 lakh from him. IIC of Nilagiri police station, Gobardhan Nayak, said, "Kashinath was the mastermind of the burglary. He orchestrated the entire plan and roped in the two other accused to carry out the theft." He added that Kasinath was produced before a local court, after which he was taken on transit remand by Delhi Police.

Death of man who tested positive for COVID-19 causes concern in Vizag
The death of a man, who tested positive for COVID-19, at a private hospital in Visakhapatnam has brought the focus back on the need to adopt COVID-appropriate behaviour, especially in crowded places. Padilam Kashinath, 64, hailing from the city, was admitted to a private hospital with complications of Parkinson's Disease, Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome, Pneumonia and COVID-19 on May 28. The death report mentioned that the patient was suffering from the four diseases. The cause of death was, however, mentioned as 'viral pneumonia respiratory failure'. Kashinath died while undergoing treatment on Thursday morning. The news spread rapidly, though the doctors and the officials concerned were initially tight-lipped about the case. They refused to admit that the victim had COVID-19 as it was not confirmed by the Virology Lab at the King George Hospital (KGH). They said that the patient had co-morbid conditions. Attempts to contact the District Medical & Health Officer failed as he could not be reached over the phone. The first case of COVID-19 positive case of the city was a woman, and it was confirmed a week ago. Subsequently, her relative and the doctor who treated her contracted COVID-19. However, all three have recovered.
