A grieving family slammed 'insensitive and disrespectful' diggers who piled 5ft of soil excavated from another plot onto a grandfather's grave.
Roy Thompson, from Levenshulme, was buried in a plot at Southern Cemetery in Chorlton on March 10. He died aged 88 following a battle with cancer.
Although no headstone has yet been erected, his family left flowers and other mementoes of his life on the plot. But when his family and widow turned up on Thursday morning, they found the flowers and other items had been removed and soil from a freshly dug adjacent plot had been piled high onto Roy's grave.
