Families in Vietnam bury their loved ones after remains of 16 of the 39 people found dead inside a refrigerated truck in Essex, UK were repatriated
Family members of Hoang Van Tiep before a coffin bearing his remains during a funeral in Dien Chau district, Nghe An province on November 28, 2019.
All 31 men and eight women found in a refrigerated container in Essex last month were from Vietnam, many from rural towns that have been shaken by the tragedy. "I'm very sad to have to bury my own son," said Vo Van Binh, whose 25-year-old child was on the ill-fated truck. Grim-faced relatives wearing white headbands – in line with Vietnam funeral customs – later loaded his casket into an ornately-decorated van to transfer him to the crematorium.
"This is the first time we experienced a tragedy like this – five young people dead at the same time and five funerals at the same time," said one of Linh's neighbours, refusing to be named. The majority of the 39 people found dead in the truck on October 23 came from just a handful of central provinces, hotspots for illegal migration into Europe.
