In a small Italian town of Falciano del Massico, the mayor has ordered his residents not to pass away. He issued the order earlier this month stating: “It is forbidden for residents … to go beyond the boundaries of earthly life, to go into to the afterlife.”
Unfortunately, two elderly residents refused to listen to his order, the La Stampa reported.
The weird order was issued after the town was embroiled in a dispute with its neighbour over the expansion of a cemetry which is owned by the latter. The two towns failed to agree on the expansion plans and the mayor of the town withdrew from the proposed project, leaving its residents with no burial space.
Till the town builds its own cemetry, the town residents have to keep living.
