Bhopal, Feb 22 (UNI) Taking cognisance of several bones of infants and foetuses being found at a mission hospital in Ratlam district headquarters, the Madhya Pradesh Human Rights Commission has directed the district administration to submit a detailed report.
''The District Collector and the Superintendent of Police are to submit the report within two weeks,'' Commission Chairman D M Dharmadhikari told journalists here this evening.
Describing the matter as grave, he did not deny the apprehension of such cases coming to light in other hospitals of the state.
''Minute examination by forensic scientists and other experts is imperative. Preliminary reports indicate foeticide, a crime that has to be checked,'' the jurist felt.
More than 560 bones were found at the hospital since Saturday.
The 392 bones unearthed during the first excavation were said to have been of at least 14 infants of foetuses.
