Desecration of Graves
1910 New Catholic Dictionary
A barbarous custom, among ancient and modern nations, punished by Church law. Whosoever desecrates corpses or graves to commit theft, or from some other evil motive, is to be punished with the personal interdict, is ipso facto infamous, and if a cleric, must be deposed.
