Man takes sister's exhumed body to bank in bid to get to her money, bank says

Quote:
New Delhi — An Indian man dug up his sister's body and carried it to a bank branch to prove she was dead after being refused access to her account without a death certificate, the lender says.

Jitu Munda, from a constitutionally recognized tribal community in the eastern state of Odisha, went to an Indian Overseas Bank branch on Monday to withdraw money from his deceased sister's account.

But bank staff told him "withdrawals by a third party are not permitted without proper authorization," the lender said Tuesday.

Angered by being turned away because he didn't have her death certificate, Munda returned to the branch carrying the "human remains" of his sister, who had been buried days earlier, the bank said.

This is why I am against Gerrymandering and always will (except when one side tries to grab power)
Trump started this BS
It amazes me that Republicans are not OK with a Dem response
It's so hypocritical
They are literally whining about it

“WASHINGTON (AP) — The Southern Poverty Law Center told a federal court on Tuesday that law enforcement agencies have long known that the nonprofit paid informants to report on the movements of hate groups, rejecting assertions by the Trump administration that the nonprofit steered money to the Ku Klux Klan and other extremist groups without the knowledge of authorities.

In its first legal defense against the charges, the group filed motions in federal court in Alabama asking the court to order acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to retract statements saying the government had “no information” about the informant program, and to block him from making further similar statements. Blanche made the comment in a press conference last week and later on Fox News as he announced charges against the nonprofit.”

Just proves how desperate Republicans are
They supported Trump into an unpopular war raising gas prices.
Instead of working on the high gas prices problem
Desperately trying to hold on to power
If gas goes above 5 bucks this summer. Buckle up. It's gonna be a bumpy ride

In 2021 Sandy Hook families won a settlement against Alex Jones InFo Wars. I was curious how long it was going to go until they received any money. Still being fought in court battle appeals, so $0.
