Mumbai, July 30 (IBNS): The body of Yakub Memon, who was hanged on Thursday morning in Nagpur Central Jail, was buried in a graveyard in Mahim in Mumbai amid heavy security.

The authorities had earlier given conditions to Memon's family that the burial should be a low key affair and must be completed in a stipulated time.
The execution of Memon, a convict in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts, was carried out shortly after a Supreme Court bench rejected a petition against his death.
