Phone addict buried under a tombstone depicting her favourite iPhone

A 25-year-old Russian woman has been buried below a gravestone depicting her favourite iPhone, it emerged today.



Mourners in the oil-rich city of Ufa were amazed to see the huge tombstone erected over Rita Shameeva’s burial plot.

It is made from black basalt and bears the Apple symbol on the reverse, and a picture of Shameeva on the front.

It was erected by her grieving dad Rais Shameev two years after her death in January 2016 from an unknown cause, say reports.

The five-foot high monument towers above other gravestones in the Yuzhnoye cemetery, and also has a QR code on the base.
