Incomplete death certificate allegedly signed off by official, sources allege, with critical information marked ‘Unknown’

REAL NEWS – An incomplete death certificate that reportedly has been signed off by the coroner has become the cause of concern among certain professionals.

 

According to reports received by REAL News, this document was submitted without critical information – and, yet, it is alleged that it received the official signature that would permit the body to be buried.

 

Sources allege that the certificate does not record a date of birth, age, gender, address, or even the name of the deceased person, and no cause of death is specified.

 

Reportedly, a medical doctor simply filled in these necessary areas by marking the word “Unknown” on the certificate.

 

Accordingly, the sources add, family members of the deceased have not been located, and the Government, therefore, has had to assume responsibility for the body.

 

However, it appears that no one is concerned about the dead person’s identity. Reportedly, the death certificate is already at the Civil Registry, having been taken there last Thursday, July 27.

 

But, the source says, there is no way that the registrar could have issued such a document with no information on the victim.

 

Meanwhile, it is not known whether burial of the deceased has already taken place; but, if it has, it would be quite irregular, the sources say.
