The duration a body is kept in a morgue can vary based on several factors, including local laws, the circumstances of death, and family decisions regarding burial or cremation. Typically, bodies may be held for a few days to several weeks, especially if an investigation is ongoing or if arrangements are pending. In some cases, if no claim is made by family members, the body may be held longer before being processed according to local regulations.
