Police on Saturday busted a gang which took out bodies and sold empty graves at the Yaseenabad graveyard.
The gang sold graves for Rs20,000 to grieving families looking for a place to bury their dead loved ones, police said.
Police began investigation after a man filed a complaint at the Aizizabad Police Station saying that he visited his mother’s grave after two years but found someone else buried there.
A gravedigger was arrested by police.
The Yaseenabad graveyard is filled to its full capacity and authorities pasted a board saying that they will not bury any more people there. However, people willing to pay for a grave find a way out, residents said.
