Heba Press – Ahmed Al-Musaed
On Thursday, January 9, the morgue of the Darrag regional hospital in Berkane witnessed a strange incident involving the exchange of two bodies for two people, one from the town of Ahfir and the other from the town of Berkane.
According to sources from the site “Heba Press”, one of the sons of the deceased, who belongs to the Oulut region in the province of Berkane, asked the head of the death service to hand over the body of his father to them, which I hadn’t seen him for four years.
By mistake, add the same sources, the son of the deceased showed the body of the other person and asked the lawyer who had washed him to transport him by ambulance to the Boulaut cemetery, in Berkane province, where he was buried.
But when the family of the deceased residing in the town of Ahfir, who were waiting for the completion of certain administrative procedures, came to wash the body of their deceased, they found that the facial features did not match those of their deceased, which required the intervention of security personnel.
By order of the public prosecutor, the body buried in Waulut was exhumed and returned to his family, where he was buried today, Friday January 10, in the town of Ahfir, while the body of the deceased, who was present at the morgue in the Waulut area, was buried.
The Public Prosecutor’s Office has opened an in-depth investigation to determine the circumstances and reasons that led to this error and to ensure that it does not happen again in the future.
