An elder sister of fugitive gangster Chhota Shakeel died at a hospital in Mumbra in neighbouring Thane district on Tuesday, a senior police official said.
Hamida Farook Sayyad, who was in her late 50s, was admitted to a hospital after she showed symptoms of coronavirus infection, the police official said.
Sayyad died during treatment while the results of her COVID-19 test were awaited, the official added.
She lived in Mumbra with husband and three children.
Shakeel’s younger sister Fahmida had died in Mumbai last month.
