    Pic shows: Pictures from VK community and from Russian news site that show people with their dead relatives. Photos from social networks. A macabre internet group has been launched to promote taking selfies with dead friends and relatives, and organisers claim they are simply recreating a Victorian English tradition. Called "selfie with a dead man" the grotesque site, set up by a former funeral service employee, already has scores of followers. Bizarrely founder Alfred Polyakov, 28, who has established the group on the VKontakte social network, even promises awards and cash prizes for the best photos sent in. The prizes go from 50 rubles (50 pence GBP) to 5,000 rubles (50GBP pounds). He said: "People are afraid to make selfies with the dead and to send them to us, we got only a few photos, but did not publish them. "First of all, we do not allow underage people to take part in our contest, second of all we will publish photos only if the dead person’ relatives sign papers claiming they don’t mind. "There is nothing bad in it, if you take a photo with love with your dead relative." And despite the fact that many people are appalled at the practice he said he was actually doing the dead and their relatives a favour. He said: "With the contest we are doing a good thing, trying to help the family of the dead person come to terms with their grief. And of course, there is the cash, 5,000 roubles is a lot of money, if they get it." The weird movement started when Polyakov posted a message encouraging people to make selfies with a corpse at the funeral of 13 year-old girl in Syktivkar, who died in car crash. He offered a reward of 5,000 rubles to anyone who did it but there were no takers, but there was so much debate on the subject, he made it into a larger project. People have now threatened to block the group. One posted: "Let those that have died to go in peace. Leave them alone." So far only a few selfies have been taken with dead people although many have joined the group. Polyakov said the strange practice was common in Britain during Victorian times, but quickly fell out of favour. In Victorian Britain photographs were not as common and usually taken by professionals in studios, so when a person died the relatives would arrange a picture so they had something to remember the dead person by. It was particularly common to take pictures of the children as a memento for their grieving parents, often photographing them with siblings or their favourite toys. (ends)

    Kāda grupa, sociālajā portālā VK, kas ir krievu Facebook versija, un to ikdienā apmeklē 70 miljoni lietotāju, aicinājusi cilvēkus publicēt pašbildes, kurās viņi redzami ar mirušajiem, kā arī piedāvājuši labākās bildes autoram naudas balvu.

    Grupas nosaukums ir „Pašbilde ar mirušo” un tās uzturētāji labākās bildes autoriem solās piešķirt 1-5 tūkstošus Krievijas rubļu (14-70 Eiro) lielu naudas balvu.

    Publicēti arī īpaši noteikumi pašbildēm, piemēram, bildes autoram ir jāsmaida, jo mirušais ir devies uz „labāku vietu”.

    Dažas no “iesūtītajām” bildēm

    Šī grupa, ar 500 sekotājiem, nonāca tiesībsargājošo iestāžu redzeslokā pēc tam, kad 70 Eiro liela naudas balva tika piešķirta labākajai izvēlētajai pašbildei, kurā redzams 13 gadus vecas, autokatastrofā mirušas meitenes līķis.

    Mirušās meitenes vecāki preses pārstāvjiem pastāstīja, ka ļoti baidījās, ka meitenes bērēs cilvēki fotografēsies ar viņas līķi.

    Siktivkaras policijas pārstāvis, Aleksandrs Šidjusovs pastāstīja: „Mēs strādājam, lai izpētītu šo ierakstu mērķi un apstākļus, lai noteiktu vai šos ierakstus publicējuši vairāki cilvēki vai viens indivīds.”

    Šidjusovs arī atzina, ka izmeklēšana vēl ir tikai sākuma stadijā, tādēļ ir grūti sniegt komentārus un prognozes.

    Šīs grupas administratora, Alfreda Poljakova, profils ir bloķēts nepieņemamo aktivitāšu dēļ.

    Interesanti, ka vēl 19 gadsimtā Viktorijas laikmeta Eiropā bija ierasts veikt pēcnāves fotouzņēmumus, mirušā tuvinieka dzīvie radinieki devās pie fotogrāfa un sarunāja fotografēšanos, lai viņiem pēcāk būtu liecība, kas kalpotu mirušā piemiņai.Pēc profilā ievietotajiem datiem, Poljakovs ir 28 gadus vecs universitātes profesors no Doņeckas un viņš izveidoja šo interešu grupu pirms mēneša.

    Policijai izdevās telefoniski sazināties ar Poljakovu, un intervijā viņš pastāstīja: „Mēs izveidojām šo grupu, lai mainītu attieksmi pret nāvi. Pirmkārt, mēs nepilngadīgajiem neļaujam piedalīties šajā konkursā, otrkārt, fotogrāfijas mēs publicējam tikai tādā gadījumā, ja mirušā cilvēka radinieki paraksta nepieciešamos dokumentus, un neiebilst, ka šādas bildes tiek publicētas. Nav nekā slikta tajā, ka tu uzņem pašbildi ar mirušo radinieku.”

    Viņš piemetināja: „Mēs palīdzam mirušo cilvēku ģimenēm samierināties ar zaudējumu, un, protams, ir arī vērtīga naudas balva, kas tiek piešķirta labākās bildes autoram. Nāve ir jaunas dzīves sākums.”
