  • After cemetery workers exhumed a skeleton of  a man whose family did not pay the cemetery fees, the empty coffin is seen at the edge of a cliff, in Guatemala City, May 20, 2009. Every year, over 2000  graveyards of individuals are exhumed after their relatives have not paid the cemetery fees. According to the main cemetery rules, six years after the burial, relatives must pay 180 Quetzales -around $24- to renew the graveyard permission for another period of 4 years.  After sending a telegram, if there is no payment, cemetery workers destroy the individual  graveyards, and throw the skeletons into a collective graveyard (AP Photo/Rodrigo Abd)
