A 55-year-old CRPF Sub-Inspector, who was tested positive for the novel coronavirus or COVID-19, passed away on Tuesday at Safdarjung hospital.
Posted with 31st Battalion in Noida, the SI succumbed to his infection due to "breathlessness" during the treatment at around 4 p.m., an CRPF official said.
The Central Reserve Police (CRPF) official, a resident of Barpeta in Assam, had got the infection from a nursing assistant of the force who had also tested positive earlier this month.
