Joy Division’s lead singer Ian Curtis‘ headstone was stolen from his grave site last week.

The band’s bassist Peter Hook can’t believe thieves stole the marker and he is upset that someone would commit such a repulsive crime.

Hook says he still visits the grave of his late friend and was saddened by the news.

He says, “I must admit that in my life I’ve been to Ian’s stone a lot. It’s somewhere, especially with the effect it had on me after what we did, it’s somewhere that I go for a moment of quiet reflection just to give the guy a nod”.

Drummer Stephen Morris is also shocked by the disappearance of the stone. “I just don’t understand why anyone would do it. You couldn’t sell it on eBay - it’s ridiculous and very upsetting. I’m speechless. It really is not a very nice thing at all”.

Police are hoping to recover the grave marker and an investigation is currently underway.

Curtis committed suicide in 1980.
