Now let's see back, in the past some dead bodies of some famous people were stolen. Lets tell you today about who are those famous people.

Alexander Turnie Stewart

Nine-century business tycoon Alexander Turnie Stewart, we did not know yet, but during his time he was quite popular. It is a very normal thing that the thieves will be stunned to steal his body. But the thieves themselves could not even think that their fortune would be so well-received. Stewart's life was similar to the characters in the novels. Soon after entering the canned dry-food business from Ireland to England, he wrote a list of one of the best wealthiest people in history.

In 1876, exactly two years after Stewart's death, his body was stolen from the grave of St. Mark's Church in New York City. Thieves claim $ 20,000, in recent times it is less than $ 5 million. If the police and the detectives tried hard to find a way to catch the thieves, then they finally decided to give ransom according to their needs. Stuart's family Of course, grave burglars spoke. In return for Stuart's skeleton, at least a dead skeleton, his family members got back. Later, this business tycoon was again buried in New York's Garden City.

Tassos Papadupulos

Cyprus's popular president, Tasso Papadypulos, died of lung cancer in 2008. His body was buried in a cemetery in the city of Deftara, near the capital city of Nicosia. There was almost a year in the dead body, until the day before the President's first death anniversary. On December 11, 2009, Tassos's former bodyguard came to pay tribute to the candle in his grave, according to the custom of Cyprus. Instead of caring for the grass of the day every day, he saw a huge black hole and ground mound In an interview given to the BBC, the bodyguard said that after seeing the condition of the grave she realized that there was no dead body inside her and her beloved president. The body has been stolen.

After about three months the burglars demanded ransom money. Taskose's body was recovered from Nicosiae's other cemetery on the basis of that phone call. After the arrest of thieves, another horror story came out. The president's body was stolen by a prisoner convicted of murder for his murder by his brother. Their plan was that the government would force the killer to release the murderer from jail. But the rules are left! Their third aide, an Indian citizen, is not getting any benefit from this, and simply call the Tasos family. Reuters tells the statement that he It is illegal to steal the body in Cyprus and the two assassins have to be imprisoned for two years. And it is not necessary to say that the killer did not get a drop of punishment.

Thomas Paine

Many of us did not have the good fortune to listen to Jefferson's breakthrough political ideas. However, due to the relationship with Abraham Lincoln, Bertrand Russell or Christopher Hitchens, Thomas Pine's tone is all known. For books 'The Age of Reason', 'Commonsense' and 'The Rights of Man', he became the pioneer of independent America's secularism and social revolution. In any case, in 1809, Pine died completely without a partner. Because of the constant ridicule of the main and traditional religions of the society, he was given a one-sided way. At that time, he alone took life from the earth alone.

But if you think he has no fan, it's not true. Ten years after Pine's death, a fundamentalist named William Cobbet came out to find Pine's grave. He finds the grave from New Rochelle in New York. In this way, his ideals are lying in negligence, he could not accept this view in any way. So, after digging the graves, the rest of his heroes filled with bags in the bag and took it to England. She wanted Pine's body to bury her with proper respect. But Bacchara's wish was never successful. For the past two decades, Kobeet had been carrying bones of the rebel writer with himself. But then one day he died in the cobbet and lost with him the last sign of the pine. In the following years, several times the claims of various pine residues have been with him, but none eventually came to the wash. There is no other way to know where the author is once in a while.

Charlie Chaplin

For the silent era, actor Charlie Chaplin will surely remember the characters for his 'Little Tramp' for more than a few hundred years. He died in 1977 on the last breath of life. Shortly after his death, he was given a last-minute farewell at the village of Korsiar in Switzerland, with a wooden coffin weighing 300 pounds. But on March 2, 1978, burial of his dead body burglars. In the beginning, for a few days no one said anything, but after the weekend, Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin's fourth wife, a phone call came to him. The thieves demanded 4 million Swiss francs for the revenge of their bodies. The grave burglar was happy to think that it is not a perfect plan, where will he go without money? But with his surprise, the newly widowed Lady Una Chaplin refuses to pay the money, saying "Charlie would have been very upset at hearing this."

The local police made arrangements to present the ransom for the arrest of the fake currency in the hands. But the warnings were already shaken by the thief so the plans were shattered. But both the thieves and the police are equally unresponsive, and they continue to play mice and cat for a few more days. Police were expecting another phone call from burglars buried in May, so they have already taped Chaplin's home phone. More than 200 phonebooths were also surrendered as an additional warning.

So finally when the thieves came to the call, the police traced it very easily and then ran it. Two people, Roman Wardas and Gansko Ganev, were arrested. They are both motorists in the profession. They led the police in a vault of a graveyard in a cornfield, where Chaplin's stolen body was kept hidden. Police recovered Chaplin and brought two thieves to the court. Roman imprisonment is sentenced to four years in prison as the main master of the theft, and Gansco is to be 18 months in prison as his assistant. Chaplin was buried again in the former graveyard. But this time around the grave is made of concrete with a solid wall that no one can interfere again in its continuity.
