The unusual funeral procession passed through Trinidad-Tobago’s capital, Port of Spain, to the Evangelical Church of St John in Diego Martin.
Wearing a white shirt and pants and a pink suit, corpse Che was refused entry to the church because the staff couldn’t believe what he saw.
In the videos and photos that are milling about on the internet, the body of the murder victim is then seated in front of the church building.
Reported The Sun Wednesday (2/12/2020), a number of mourners who arrived initially did not think that the figure sitting at the front was Che’s corpse.
At that time, many mourners thought he was part of the funeral staff. Some even criticized him for not wearing a mask.
Netizens commented on a number of videos of his funeral ceremony. “This is proof that Trinidad-Tobago is not a safe place,” said one netizen.
Unlike Che who was deliberately seated by Dennie’s Funeral Home, Che’s father was laid in a chest and placed in the building.
“Every life is unique. Therefore, death must also be treated uniquely,” read the plaque on the front of Che’s body.
But, in the end, Che Lewis’ body was put in a coffin for burial. To Loop News, the owner of the funeral home admitted that the funeral request came from the family.
Dennie said his party was no stranger to this way. Because they’ve seen it overseas, and are prepared if anyone asks for it.
The eccentric way is referred to as embalming extreme. The bodies were injected with a preservative liquid which made them so stiff.
The technique reportedly originated in Puerto Rico in the mid-2008s, where it was originally used to give the deceased more time to pay his respects.
The demand is increasing. The family was willing to spend up to 2,000 pounds (Rp 38 million), so that the bodies of their relatives seemed to rise again.
However, this method is not without negative reactions. The police said what the funeral home was doing was very irresponsible.
They said they would launch an investigation with a fine of £ 750 (Rp.14.2 million) awaiting if found guilty.
While the pastor who is in charge of the service said they will ask for what form of family funeral in the future.
