Human bones found near hospital in Mullaitivu

Human bones have been found at a site near a hospital in Mullaitivu, the Police said.

The bones were found when the land area in Mankulam, Mullaitivu was being cleared by de-miners.

The land was being cleared for some construction work when fears arose of mines remaining in the area from the war.

A de-mining team began clearing the area when they came across human bones.

The area was cordoned off by the Police and investigations have been launched.
