Family members of the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) secretary Snehashish Ganguly tested positive for COVID-19, said the state health department on Friday. Wife of Snehasish, the elder brother of BCCI president Sourav Ganguly, has also tested positive for COVID-19, Hindustan Times (HT) quoted a senior official as saying.
Snehashish’s mother-in-law and father-in-law had also tested positive for the disease last week, he said.
A domestic help at Snehasish’s Mominpur home where he was living recently was also found to be positive, he added. They are all undergoing treatment at a private nursing home in the city and are stable.
Snehashish, a former Ranji cricketer, has tested negative for COVID-19 and been advised home isolation, the official said.
“All the four complained of some health issues, which were similar to the symptoms of COVID-19 when they were staying at another residence and not at Ganguly’s ancestral house in Behala. After testing positive, all the four were shifted to a private nursing home,” a senior official of the department told HT.
They will be tested again on Saturday and further decisions on their treatment will be taken, HT reported nursing home sources as saying.
