An expert spoke about the consequences of a new strange service that is gradually gaining popularity.
Lawyer Alla Georgieva explained that she will be the one who decides to make jewelry from the ashes of deceased loved ones.
In a conversation with Moscow 24 , the expert reported that creating jewelry from ashes could result in criminal liability.
Law enforcement officials may classify this as desecration of the body of the deceased.
This will not be a violation of the law only if the person during his lifetime gave permission for his ashes to be used in this way after death.
But relatives must be prepared to prove this fact.
In other cases, proceedings may be initiated. Punishment for this offence includes up to a prison term.
At the same time, the service of creating jewelry from human ashes is gaining popularity in the world and in Russia.
Companies involved in this explain that carbon is released from the remains, which then turns into graphite, and then into diamond. Prices for this service start at 100 thousand rubles.
