A Romanian disco owner put an entire town is disgust when he relocated the town’s small graveyard to a garbage dump.

The man allegedly removed everything on and under the graveyard, including headstones and graves and in just one night dumped the entire content of the small cemetery at a nearby trash dump.

Locals discovered the horrific act after children of the town were caught playing with what appeared to be human bones. When the children were asked where they had found the bones they said “at the garbage dump and there are many more of them”.

Further investigation revealed that the entire cemetery had indeed been cleared including its ‘residents’ and that the remains of the deceased were indeed thrown at the garbage landfill.

The nightclub owner declared on Romanian RTO TV that he had received permission from the local government to demolish the small graveyard to make room for a cultural and entertainment center he wants to build.

Local government was not available for comments and the town’s people are left having to search through garbage for the remains of their loved ones.
