Police Raid Funeral Home To Confiscate Body

Hey, we're the cops, we're here to haul off the body, we words that could have been spoken by a group of police officials who were sent to the católico de Mansión, in Nicoya, Guanacaste, to confiscate the body at a wake.

It appears that the body of 70 year old José Diego Castillo Milanés on January 9th, who died in hospital after being a victim of a hit and run, was released to family before a mandatory autopsy was performed.

Police say that a medical doctor released the body before it was sent to the morgue in San Joaquín de Flores, Heredia, and as such were dispatched to recover it at the funeral home where it was being displayed before burial.

The Organismo de Investigacion Judicial (OIJ) says it is investigating the hit and run accident and needs the forensic exam results to make its case.

The hospital in Liberia is now also investigating the circumstances of the serious error.
