Tragic hoax nurse Jacintha Saldanha is home to tears | The Sun ...

FRIENDS and family of tragic hoax nurse Jacintha Saldanha paid tribute to her at her funeral at a church in southern India.

Her husband Benedict Barboza, daughter Lisha, 14, and 16-year-old son Junal were joined by hundreds of mourners for the simple ceremony in Shirva, south west India.

Crowds lined the roads close to the Catholic church where the service was held and prayers were said at the graveside.

Extra police had been drafted in as up to 5,000 mourners were expected.

The family were mobbed by crowds amid tearful scenes when they arrived in India with the coffin yesterday.

Wrapped in sackcloth, it was towed by a tractor through the streets after arriving from the UK.

It was then loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital.

Jacintha, 46, killed herself after taking a hoax call by two Aussie DJs. The pranksters, pretending to be royals inquiring after the Duchess of Cambridge, were blamed in a note by Jacintha, it was claimed.

The Indian-born nurse?s death near London?s King Edward VII hospital on December 7 sparked protests in her home country.
