Mumbai police have discovered the preserved body of an 80-year-old man, who passed away in 2022 from cancer, kidney failure and other severe health issues, inside a dispensary in Kurar village. The family had kept the body for nearly four years, according to the police. The identities of the man and his relatives have not been made public.
Following the man's natural death, his wife and two children opted to preserve his body, citing an emotional connection to him. The daughter of the deceased is a lawyer. The family decided to seek assistance from a local dispensary, which closed down approximately a month ago, for the body preservation process.
The police were made aware of the situation through an informant. It was revealed that the family was considering the possibility of preserving the body abroad via an American institute that offers long-term preservation services. The authorities noted there were no signs of foul play, and no case has been registered since the death was deemed natural.
The family is currently deliberating whether to conduct the final rites or ship the body abroad. Neighbors and relatives were well aware of the preservation.
