Builders have left a 33ft mound with the burial plot and headstone on top as the foundations are dug out around it.

A grave disrupts work on a huge building site after a family refused to have it moved.

Builders have had to leave a 33ft mound with the burial plot and headstone on top as the foundations are dug out around it at the site in China.

The 2004 grave is already surrounded by new high-rise residential buildings while the dispute rumbles on in Taiyuan, Shanxi province.

A room with a view.

This is just extortion by the family.

Hmmmm.....Nothing but a shell there. Still feel bad for the family though. Although it makes an interesting scene. Can the family even access the grave any more?

I'm wondering how much more $$ they're holding out for?

Whatever the market will bear.


I think that, due to the extortionist nature of the family, the deceased's remains should be gathered up and ground into a powder.

The resultant powder should be processed into tortillas and the family forced to eat burritos until all the remains are consumed.

I don't think that's too harsh.
