Well it looks like something strange but here in Thrissur, Kerala an elderly casual labourer and his wife to gather their dead son's semen from an infertility medical center and use it to have a surrogate child.

As it was a judgement by a Lok Adalat for the couples who won the right to use dead son's semen to have a surrogate child.

Ravi Kumar 59-years-old a casual labourer who works as a sweeper at a government hospital and his 58-years-old wife Karthiyayani are extremely happy with the judgement.Infact they have even found a woman who is agreeable to become a surrogate mother. 

The couple had a son, Ratheesh, who was a student of sound engineering in Bangalore when he was diagnosed with a tumour in his testes. While he was being treated, doctors advised that his semen be collected and stored for further use. And that's what he did. Ratheesh passed away at the age of 28 last year after contracting pneumonia.

"When we approached the infertility clinic requesting them to hand over our son's semen, they said they can give it only if a court gives a ruling to this effect," said Kumar.

Now the Lok Adalat in Kochi, in a ruling Monday, said the couple should make use of the semen within three months.

Karthiyayani said, "As we came to conclusion that we would like to go for a child for our dead son's semen and we will surely go to any outer limit for it.As it includes so much of expenditure so for that we have decided to sell our land and our small home".
