The family also said they did not raise the issue on the funeral day because they wanted the ceremony to proceed as planned

A video of the incident shared over social media shows the coffin falling over from the front side while being borne aloft by pallbearers holding poles, much to the consternation of the people attending the procession.Alliance Casket and Funerals told 8world that a pole used to carry the casket broke, causing the mishap. During the procession, friends and family of the deceased are said to have carried the casket, not workers from the company.

Although earlier reports said that the family “understood” that it had been an accident and that they did not blame the company, a later report said that the family had reached out to 8world to say that they did not agree with the spokesperson’s statement and that the company should have ensured that the poles they provide could bear the weight of a casket.

Furthermore, the 8world report says that the company’s statement that it had not been its employees who had carried the casket implied that the mishap had been the fault of the friends and family members. An individual working in the industry told 8world that it’s possible that the “poor quality” of the wood used on the poles caused one to break and the accident.
