Press Releases In Council, Government And Democracy


Hull City Council Statement - 06/11/2011
Sunday 6 November 2011

On Friday 4 November 2011, Hull City Council was made aware of a situation relating to the body of a man, who was in his late thirties, located in the city mortuary. The body lay in the place where Grace Kamara had been recorded as rested. At the moment, we cannot explain this.

Whilst Grace Kamara died of natural causes in 1999, her council funded burial was, for family-related reasons, only able to take place on Friday. It was immediately postponed.

Hull City Council is appalled and distraught at what it has learned and in conjunction with Hull and East Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust, is undertaking a full and thorough investigation.

At the present time our main priority is to inform and support the families of those affected. We expect further information to be available later.
