A man who had been declared dead and even buried by his family has shocked everyone by suddenly reappearing.
Waluyo
The man simply identified as Waluyo, has become the subject of wide debate in s small Indonesian village.
Waluyo aroused attention after suddnly reappearing a year after he was declared dead.
Waluyo's Indonesian family got the shock of their life after their
husband and father just showed up at their doorstep one year after they
had buried him.
The 62-year-old man was pronounced dead on May 15, 2015, after supposedly being involved in a car accident.
According to Oddity Central, this
bizarre story started last year, when Waluyo, from Suryoputran
Panembahan village in Jogyakarta, left his home to work as a street
cleaner in the city of Semarang, in order to support his family.
It wasn’t long after his departure that his wife, Alim Eskatinah,
got a call from the police who told her that Waluyo had been the victim
of a serious car accident and was in critical condition at the emergency
room.
Waluyo with family members after his mysterious reappearance
The whole family and even some of their neighbors rushed to the
hospital to be by his side, but the injured man died after a few days.
“In the hospital he was in a coma. Relatives and neighbors all
visited him. He then died on May 7, 2015. Many came to his funeral, all
the neighbors came,” Waluyo’s daughter, Anti Ristanti told Indonesian newspaper Detik.
Then, a few weeks ago, Waluyo returned home, where he was greeted
with a unique mix of happiness and horror by his distraught family.
“Is this real or not? I have to step back [to see him], how can a dead person come back to life? I’m shocked,” his wife, Alim Eskatinah, told local reporters.
Waluyo's grave
She was so shocked to see the man they had buried a year ago
standing in front of her that she didn’t even believe it was him until
she checked some distinctive physical traits. “He had a scar on his back because of a skin condition,” Alim said. “He also had a missing tooth.”
They all checked out, but just to be sure, the family asked him to name a few of relatives.
Waluyo holds up his own death certificate
After passing these strange tests and hearing their story, the
confused man told them that he had been in Semarang, another city, all
this time, but since he didn’t have a mobile phone he never got in touch
with them. He had no idea his family had buried him back home.
Waluyo’s “return from the dead” obviously made his family very
happy, but it also raised some very interesting questions, like who lies
buried in his grave, how did none of his family and friends notice that
the person in the hospital wasn’t really Waluyo, and why did the police
think he was the victim of that car accident in the first place.
The first one remains unanswered for now, as for the other two, one
plausible explanation would be that the person who died simply looked a
lot like Waluyo, although he claims he doesn’t have a twin brother.
This must have been one hell of a resemblance, since his own family
confirmed it was Waluyo, and didn’t even bother to check for those
distinctive physical traits.
Waluyo and police officers
Flabbergasted police have visited Waluyo since his return to maybe
find some answers to this mystery, and annulled his death certificate,
but not before he could have a morbid picture taken with it.
Unfortunately, having been pronounced dead, Waluyo will now have to
go through several lengthy procedures to legally return among the
living. He will have to be re-introduced into the country’s population
database and apply for a new identity card and family card, among other
things. Taking into consideration the peculiarity of his case, local
authorties have accepted not to charge him the usual fees, though.
