In a shocking revelation, a gravedigger has been arrested for stealing bodies from a Karachi cemetery on Thursday. According to police, the gravedigger was arrested from the Mominabad graveyard for digging out the bodies of two people from the graves including a child.

Police said they received a complaint from the parents of the deceased child about the desecration of the grave. A case has been registered against the gravedigger and further investigation into the incident was underway.

The police have moved the bodies to Abbasi Shaheed Hospital and have decided for a DNA to identify the bodies. Separately, last year, a gravedigger was found allegedly involved in selling existing graves at a Karachi cemetery in exchange for Rs20,000.
