    Police have laid four more charges against the former Tipene Funerals undertaker Fiona Bakulich who's before the courts

    Police have laid four more charges against the former Tipene Funerals undertaker Fiona Bakulich who's before the courts


    The 48-year-old was arrested in October, over allegations of misconduct with bodies, including stuffing them into plastic rubbish bags instead of the coffins that had been paid for.

    There are now 14 charges against Bakulich , with 12 relating to obtaining by deception, and another two charges of misconduct with human remains.

    Police say their investigation's ongoing and further arrests are possible.

    Bakulich - who also featured in reality TV show The Casketeers - is due to reappear in court at the end of this month.
