Couple tries to 'resurrect' dead son

One couple in Gonerajpalli village in the coastal Krishna district in Andhra Pradesh state of India tried to dig the grave of their son to "resurrect" him while hundreds of villagers watched them doing so.

The couple, Guruvaiah and his wife Anantamma, had started digging the grave of their son in the village when police intervened and arrested them. They claimed to have supernatural powers to resurrect the dead.

Hundreds of villagers had gathered to watch the couple's "miracle". Their teenaged son had died of ill health 40 days ago. According to locals, the duo had announced that they would resurrect their son on the 41st day.

As the word spread, men, women and children from neighboring villages thronged the graveyard. The couple started a special 'puja' and was about to take out the body when policemen, alerted by a television channel, arrived on the scene.
