Confusion over misplaced gravestone at Puthumala
The New Indian Express Kozhikode
|July 31, 2025
A MIX-UP in the installation of a gravestone led to emotional scenes at the Puthumala cemetery on Wednesday, after the memorial stone of Mundakkai native Famil Ifaf was mistakenly placed on the grave of Punchirimattom resident Pandiyan.
The error came to light when Pandiyan's elderly parents, Palaniswamy and Pappathi, were unable to find their son's final resting place. After a distressing search, it was Pandiyan's brother, Babu, who identified the correct grave using the number etched on the headstone.
