What is an Exhumation and its process?

Exhumation literally means "taking out of the earth" and is derived from the Latin ex, which means "out of," and humus, which means "earth." In simple words, exhumation often refers to the removal of human remains in a forensic context.

Process of Exhumation:-

Getting the proper permission to disinter a body is the first and most important stage in the exhumation procedure. 

The following stage is to make sure that everyone who must be present will be there for the exhumation after the legal authority to do so has been fulfilled. Who should be present for the actual disinterment of a body depends on the exact purpose of the exhumation.



The only person who is legally permitted to attend an exhumation is a member of the immediate family. However, it is still advised that the actual family members stay away from the Exhumation.

It might be upsetting or frightening to witness the procedure of having a loved one's casket taken from the ground. Even family members' mental serenity may be disturbed. As a result, physically removing a casket is still difficult, especially for members of the family watching.


After Grave Exhumation, a funeral director is typically present when the remains are going to be moved to another burial place.


Religious leaders like a priest or minister may also be present during an exhumation, depending on the circumstances. This could link a funeral service to exhumation and reinternment.

 

The burial period in Singapore is only allowed to last for 15 years; if necessary, the remains of your loved ones may then be unearthed beyond that time. The process can be helped, assisted, and advised for  niche relocation and grave exhumation services by Nirvana Columbarium. Visit nirvanacolumbariumsg.com today!
