Japanese Siblings Live With Dead Parent







TOKYO - Police on Tuesday questioned three siblings after it was discovered they had been living with the decomposed corpse of their father for nearly a decade, an official said.



Police found the body of Kyujiro Kanaoka lying on a futon bed at the family's home in Itami city in Hyogo prefecture in western Japan, said a prefectural police spokesman, who declined to be identified.


Kanaoka's three elderly children, all in their 70s or older, told police they thought their father was still alive but that one of them recently had consulted a relative about the possibility that he might be dead, the spokesman said.


Police were investigating the cause of Kanaoka's death. Judging from the condition of his decomposed body, Kanaoka may have died as long as 10 years ago, the spokesman said.


Had he been alive, the man would be 107 years old. Hyogo prefecture had registered Kanaoka as its oldest living resident, public broadcaster NHK said.

I thought this was going to be some horrific story about children living with dead parents because they didn't know what to do after they had died. However they somehow managed to live the day to day with dead mummy and daddy in the back bedroom.

wouldn't the fact that he hasn't eaten, spoken or used the washroom in ten years or so be a good indication he is no longer alive????

confused The story you're telling is similar to that a story by Ian McEwan. It was made into a movie, which I saw when I was about 12 years old.Very disturbing... 'The cement garden', it's called.

They probably did not report him dead, maybe because so they could collect on his pension.....
