CLEARANCE OF ILLEGAL GRAVES

*****

THIRTY ILLEGAL GRAVES LYING WITHIN THE CASTLE PEAK FIRING RANGE IN KWONG SHAN AREA, WILL BE CLEARED BY THE GOVERNMENT NEXT WEEK.

WHERE POSSIBLE, NOTICES WERE SERVED ON RELATIVES TO REMOVE THE GRAVES.

UNDER SECTION 118 OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND URBAN SERVICES ORDINANCE, BURIALS OUTSIDE AUTHORISED CEMETERIES ARE NOT PERMITTED, AS THE PRACTICE IS CONTRARY TO PROPER DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRYSIDE AND COULD CONSTITUTE A HEALTH HAZARD.

ILLEGAL GRAVES IN KWONG SHAN ARE ALSO DANGEROUS BECAUSE RELATIVES AND VISITORS PUT THE IR LIVES AT RISK BY ENTERING THE CASTLE PEAK FIRING RANGE,

EXHUMED REMAINS OF THESE BURIALS WILL BE RE-INTERRED IN GOVERNMENT CEMETERIES.
