More Dead News

We brought you the stories of dead people parking their cars in Chicago (home of the dead vote - makes sense). We informed you about the problem with zombie joyriders in Australia. Recently, we noted the Malaysian courts prosecuting the dead. Now Indonesia, apparently in an attempt to keep up with the rest of the world, has developed a totally new take on the dead. Or undead, as the case may be.

Zombie commuters.

Anxious family members found the body of Edy Haryanto, 55, sitting in a locked lavatory on Thursday afternoon, more than a day after he had boarded with a group of friends in the central Javanese town of Tegal, the Warta Kota newspaper reported.

His family became worried when Haryanto didn't get out at the station in Jakarta at the end of the 6-hour journey and his cell phone went unanswered.

The body traveled back and forth between Tegal and Jakarta before a janitor told the family he had been unable to clean one lavatory because the door was locked, the report said.

Haryanto was riding the train for at least half a day before he was discovered.
