New Delhi [India], April 5 : A team of Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) on Sunday visited the Markaz in Nizamuddin for spot examination in connection with a congregation held here in which thousands of people took part between March 13 and March 15 and said that no electronic device found at the centre.

Around 2,300 people were brought out from the Markaz on April 1.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had said that of the 2,300 brought out from the Markaz, 500 showed the symptoms of COVID-19 and were admitted to hospitals, whereas the remaining 1800 were sent under quarantine.
