Evicted... from their own GRAVES - PHOTO

A human skull with thick hair still clinging to it is pulled from one of the dark tombs, a miniature baby coffin, adorned with a white flower, from another.The men are removing the dead whose families can no longer afford the luxury of a private crypt and as soon as a lease on a grave expires, the cleaners will come and free up the space for a new paying customer. Any remains that are not claimed will be stuffed into plastic bags, labelled and sent to a mass grave to be reburied. Most of the corpses excavated are largely decomposed, but those that were laid to rest in the upper crypts, where conditions are hot and dry, become mummified.As the team of grave-cleaners go to work in Guatemala City, their manner hardly appears different to labourers on a building site or workers at a recycling centre.Bags of broken corpses are tossed into heaps like piles of garbage and transported on forklift trucks with the clothes they were buried in still on their backs.In one photo, a dead body with long thick black hair sits eerily erect at the top of a mountain of bagged bones.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.Az
