Reasons for exhumations

Exhumations can happen for a number of reasons, including:

  • movement from the original grave to a family plot in the same or a different cemetery
  • repatriation overseas to be buried along with other family members
  • transfer from one cemetery scheduled for development to another
  • court orders for further forensic examination.
