A man, allegedly a Tablighi Jamaat member, working as a guard in Delhi’s Defence Colony area has been booked after three members of a family tested positive for coronavirus.

The police sources said on Wednesday that the guard Mustkeem went missing on third April as the three cases came to the notice of authorities. Reportedly, he used to take rounds in the vicinity of the house of the three patients.

The family has since been quarantined.

Mustkeem is said to be a resident of Okhla area of Delhi and allegedly attended the ‘super spreader’ Tablighi Jamaat event.
