NDTV: Bodies of 14 newborns were found wrapped in plastic bags in an empty plot of land in south Kolkata during a cleaning programme on Sunday, the police said.
The bodies wrapped in plastic bags were found on the grassy land on Raja Rammohan Roy Sarani under the Haridebpur Police station area when labourers were cleaning it, a senior officer of Kolkata Police told news agency PTI.
Some of the bodies appeared to be in a half-decomposed state, while a few were completely decomposed, the officer said.
“We have no clue where from they (the bodies) have come. Going by circumstantial evidences, it seems that they were dumped there as the land was lying abandoned,” the officer said.
