Termite exterminators working on a house renovation in the Japanese capital uncovered the bodies of several babies preserved in bottles, some with umbilical cords still attached, Kyodo news agency said on Monday.
Three or four such bottles were found beneath the floor of a house abandoned for the past three years, where an
obstetrician had once lived and which was being renovated by a recent purchaser, Kyodo added.
The bodies appeared to have been preserved in a substance resembling formalin, Kyodo said, adding that police
were investigating further.
Police declined to confirm the report.
