If you do not do what the law says about burying or cremating a dead body, you can get in trouble. You can go to prison for up to 2 years if you neglect your duties. This means you must do what you are supposed to do when it comes to taking care of a dead person's body. You can also get in trouble if you treat a dead body in a way that is not respectful. This includes doing something to the body that is improper or indecent, whether the body is buried or not. If you interfere with a dead body in a way that is not right, you can face serious consequences, including imprisonment for a term not exceeding 2 years.
