The body of the lone terrorist behind the attack on the Sydney, Man Haron Monis, is unlikely be receive a proper burial after Muslim funderal directors said his body should either be thrown in the sea or “chucked in the bloody sh*thouse”.

So far no-one has claimed the 50-year-old’s body, meaning that he would have a state funded funeral but this would be contingent on them finding a company willing to do it.

The Australian Daily Telegraph attempted to locate a Muslim firm willing to do the funeral and discovered that none were willing to be involved. Amin Sayed, funeral director at the Lebanese Muslim Association was particularly robust. He said: “We don’t care about him, we don’t know him, chuck him in the bloody sh*thouse.”

The siege at the Lindt chocolate café that Monis began ended with two dead. He held nine customers and eight employees, the manager and a customer were killed when Police stormed the cafe. They only entered the building when they heard gunfire and feared the hostages were being murdered.
