Rahul Vohra was admitted in hospital for over a week; last week on May 4, he shared a post on Facebook in which he wrote that he had been taken to hospital four days earlier after testing positive for COVID-19. He wrote in emergency of needing oxygen; he asked, “Where can I get an oxygen bed?”, he added to it by saying that he is writing this post out of desperation.
His wife Jyoti Tiwari, while accusing the hospital where the actor was being treated for COVID-19 of medical negligence took to her Instagram handle and shared a video of her late husband in which he could be heard speaking in Hindi which translates to ‘This is very valuable in today’s time. Without this, patients suffer. But nothing is coming through this one, nothing at all.’

Jyoti, while demanding justice for her late husband, shared a note in Hindi which translates to, ‘Justice for every Rahul. Everyone knows that my Rahul left us but no one knows how he died. This is the kind of treatment he got. I hope my husband will get justice. Another Rahul should not die in this manner. #justiceforirahulvohra.’
