Unending UP Horror Tales: Sons Dump Covid Victim In Grave Using Excavator

This time, they are of a Covid victim's body being loaded onto an excavator, transported to a field, and literally dumped into a grave, along with some other disposable stuff, by the dead person's family.     Distressing visuals from UP's Sant Kabir Nagar where a family used a JCB to transport body of father who died from covid to a burial spot and literally dumped body in grave .

The unceremonious burial of the man, in his late 50s, took place in Parsa Shukl village yesterday. All his three sons, reportedly hesitant to touch the body, consented to the use of an excavator. Visuals shot on a mobile phone show one man, reportedly one of the sons, lifting the body wrapped in a green sheet and putting it into the excavator's bucket.
