In September last year, when a man in his 70s living alone in Kanazawa Ward, Yokohama died at a hospital where he was hospitalized, the body was kept at a funeral company facility without being cremated for two months due to an inappropriate response by city officials. I found out that it was.

According to the city of Yokohama, in September last year, a man in his 70s living alone in Kanazawa Ward, Yokohama, was transported to a hospital in an unconscious state and was hospitalized. I was consulted about procedures.



The staff had to find and contact relatives who could manage the man's property, but they neglected to do so. I am doing it," and continued that explanation.



For this reason, the procedure was delayed, and the man's body was kept at the funeral company's facility without being cremated for two months, and was cremated in November last year.



The city would like to consider disposing of the staff for their inappropriate response, and would like to bear the costs of storing the corpse.



The city said, "Multiple people will handle the paperwork based on the relative survey and thoroughly check each other, and the person in charge will grasp the progress and manage the work properly."
