Members of a Community in Tanzania are in shock after a man believed to have died– crushed to death by a truck came back to life weeks after burial
The man, Robert Maliaki Lukumay, reappeared alive and well in his village, sparking surprise and disbelief among his family and neighbours.
The astonishing news came just a month after his supposed burial on May 30th, which had been attended by mourners who thought they were bidding their final farewells to him.
According to Robert’s account in an interview with Ayo TV, he had been away from home for a month when news of his death spread throughout the community.
Robert expressed his disbelief and discomfort at the situation, admitting that he had yet to visit his own grave due to the unsettling feeling it gave him.
He also called for the exhumation of the buried body believed to be his, in order to clarify the mistaken identity.
“My wish is for the body to be exhumed so that the identity of whoever is buried is determined,” Robert said.
Robert’s mother, Flora, recounted the fateful day they received news of her son’s death in a road accident.
According to her, they went to the morgue, confirmed it was Robert’s body, and then organized his burial.
“On the day they were burying my son, we noticed the casket was shaking vigorously as it was being lowered,” the mother said in part during the interview.
