Gravedigger suspended for taking photo with corpse
''We never thought this could have such serious consequences, and I did not want to show any lack of respect for my uncle.''
A gravedigger has been suspended for taking a photo with a corpse.
Celestino Reyna - who is the husband of the dead man's niece - took a photo of himself, his wife and the corpse and sent it to a number of people via WhatsApp messenger, which caused the image to go viral and sparked outrage, resulting in him being fired from his job at the council.
The niece apologised for the incident, saying: ''We never thought this could have such serious consequences, and I did not want to show any lack of respect for my uncle.''
