A local town council in central Turkey has built a
morgue with a warning system in case dead bodies come back to life,
Anatolia news agency reported Wednesday.
The municipality of Malatya province has equipped its new
mortuary with refrigerators sensitive to movement inside, Anatolia
said.
"The refrigerator can sense even the slightest movement of the
body inside and gives out an alarm," Anatolia quoted Akif
Kayadurmus, the head of cemeteries, as saying.
Kayadurmus said the refrigerator doors were also kitted out with
a special system of clip that automatically opened in case of
contact.
"If the patient, proclaimed dead by doctors, awakens from a
state of unconsciousness, then we consider each and every
possibility," he said.
The mortuary with a capacity of 36 bodies will be open within a
week, Anatolia said.
