Each person chooses his own way of self-realization and gaining glory. And today not only politicians and artists, but also criminals are world famous. Someone is dissatisfied with the amount of attention given to these individuals, for others they are real heroes. Be that as it may, today every resident of Russia knows who the Japad or Ded Hasan is. The glory of influential criminal authorities does not disappear after their death. The graves of thieves are in the law at all the large and prestigious cemeteries of our country. Often in its pomposity and decoration these graves are the most magnificent and noticeable in the whole graveyard.
Description and photo of the graves of thieves in the law
Many of the tombstones of criminal authorities with confidence can be called real works of art. Very often for the most distinguished in this sphere, they make full-value statues in growth or busts. Sculptures depict their prototypes as realistically as possible, they are often made with posthumous masks, and some representatives of the criminal world puzzle this question in person, during their lifetime. Another common type of monuments is massive arbors or even "chapels". Such structures are decorated with columns and rich decoration, often in the depth of the building is established a traditional tombstone or a statue of the deceased. Anyway, the graves of thieves in law always look rich and effective and attract a lot of attention.
Where are the criminal authorities buried?
Want to see the graves of thieves in the law with your own eyes? Go to the most prestigious and ancient cemetery of the city, and you will not go wrong. Criminal authorities are buried in the neighborhood with the most famous politicians, actors, writers and other outstanding personalities. What is curious, and in our days often for such graves are places in closed elite cemeteries. This is quite legal, by a happy coincidence at the time of the funeral of a person known in a criminal environment, it turns out that his parents or other blood relatives have already been buried in some closed graveyard and possibly carrying out a family burial. It is noteworthy that thieves in the law are rarely cremated, usually the funeral is conducted by the traditional method for Russia - the "coffin with the body in the ground." But even if cremation was chosen (suppose, at the will of the deceased), you will not see a sign with the name of the criminal authority in the columbarium. It is always a full-fledged burial with a designated site.
Jap's Tomb
Who is Vyacheslav Ivankov, any resident of our country knows. The name of this criminal authority along with his criminal nickname Yaponchik for a long time flashed in the evening news releases and on the front pages of the print media. In the middle of autumn 2009, the life story of this man was over, and he found the last refuge on the Vagankovskoye cemetery in Moscow. At the same graveyard, V.Vysotsky, S. Yesenin, A.Mironov and many other famous personalities are buried. But today the grave of the thief in the law of Japonica is of interest to many tourists in the first place.
Public response
Many townsfolk are unhappy that the burials of criminal authorities look more magnificent and solid than the graves of cultural and scientific figures. But there is nothing to be done about this, as monuments are set by close people of the dead and there are no restrictions on the shape and size of the sculptures and tombstones. In other words, it's not at all necessary to be known for someone to put a beautiful portrait statue or mini chapel on your grave after death on your grave, it's an exclusively financial matter. But even with some dissatisfaction with the public interest in the afterlife of criminal authorities does not quench the "ordinary mortals." As you know, demand creates supply, and today many cemeteries even organize excursions, during which you can inspect the graves of thieves in law and find out some interesting facts from the biography of these people.
