MUMBAI: A 40-year-old Sudan national staying in a Mumbai hotel has become untraceable after testing positive for coronavirus, the police said on Wednesday.

During the COVID-19 test, he had mentioned a hotel in Colaba as his residential address in the metropolis, an official said. When health officials reached the hotel, they found he was not available.

A case has been registered by Colaba police against the Sudanese as well as the owner of the hotel, he said.
