WorldMumbai Family Preserves Man's Body for 4 Years Due to Emotional Attachment
The family of an 80-year-old man from Mumbai preserved his body for four years after his natural death in 2022, spending over ₹50 lakh. The man died from cancer, kidney failure, and age-related ailments. The family kept the body initially in a home freezer, then moved it to a dispensary during building redevelopment. They avoided last rites due to deep emotional attachment and considered sending the body to a US facility for long-term preservation.
