Burial society mistakenly inter wrong body in Petah Tikva

Israel’s chevra kadisha burial society mistakenly buries the body of the wrong woman at a funeral in Petah Tikva.

The error is discovered after the funeral, and the body is dug up and the right one interred, the 0404 website reports.

“There was a lot of distress at the scene,” a family friend says. “Everything had to start from the beginning and the husband was asked again to identify again that this was his wife. Someone here should pay for the harm caused to the bereaved family.”
