  How is flushing ashes illegal?

    They’re ashes of a person. Some places have laws against the desecration of human remains that would apply to ashes; flushing them down the toilet would probably count

      Since when are nazi carcasses considered “human” remains?

    Here in Sweden you can’t keep human ashes. It’s illegal.

        Human remains aren’t allowed to be kept. I’ve no idea about human faeces.

      Really? So you can’t keep the remains/an urn of their ashes? Does that also apply to things like when they make gemstones from ashes?

        According to Skatteverket, a deceased must be cremated or buried within a month of death. If they get cremated, then the ashes need to be buried within a year. There can be exceptions, the page says

        • Should the relatives be in disagreement about funerary arrangements
        • In case a relative is unable to organise it, e.g. due to sickness
        • In case a survivor is to be buried alongside
        • In case the departed has donated their body, e.g. for science

        No idea if you can turn loved ones into gemstones here, I’d assume not. I’d also assume that if you’re waiting with burying the cremated remains of someone because they’re to be laid to rest alongside a loved one, you’re also not allowed to keep said remains at home.

        Ingen aning. Du får ha aska från djur, men man får inte ha mormor i en urna i bokhyllan.
