A burglar who had sex with a corpse after breaking into a funeral parlour has been jailed for six years.<\/p>\n

Kasim Khuram, 23, had sex with a woman’s body after lifting the lids of coffins at the Co-Operative undertakers in Walsall Road, Great Barr, Birmingham, on 11 November.<\/p>\n

Khuram disturbed nine coffins during a drug-induced psychosis.<\/p>\n

Sentencing at Birmingham Crown Court, Judge Melbourne Inman QC said the crimes “offend all human sensitivity”.<\/p>\n

“I am not aware of – and nor have I been able to find – any similar case. It would be difficult to think of a greater depravation of the dignity of the dead,” he said.<\/p>\n

Khuram, of Kenilworth Road, Aston, forced his way into the parlour at about 03:00 GMT while high on Mamba and PCP and after drinking vodka.<\/p>\n

He disturbed “multiple coffins” and desecrated the bodies of two women.<\/p>\n

\"Funeral<\/span>

He was arrested at the scene by police officers alerted by the parlour’s alarm.<\/p>\n

The court heard he was sectioned for two weeks after being interviewed by police as he was showing signs of “drug-induced psychosis”.<\/p>\n

Det Ch Insp John Askew from West Midlands Police described it as an “horrendous and disturbing act”.<\/p>\n

Khuram wept as victim impact statements were read out in court, and his defence barrister Joseph Keating said he was “deeply sorry” for his actions.<\/p>\n

The victims’ families described him as a “monster” who had “twisted a knife” in their hearts.<\/p>\n

Khuram, who\u00a0previously admitted sexual penetration of a body and burglary<\/a>, was also ordered to register as a sex offender for 10 years.<\/p>\n
