TOKYO - The naked body of an infant was found on Oct 29 at an apartment demolition site in Tokyo, along with a broken glass jar containing liquid believed to be linked to the case, police said.
The police received an emergency call from a construction worker around 2.05pm local time reporting the discovery at a site in a residential area about 500m north-east of Yoyogi-uehara Station in Tokyo’s Shibuya Ward.
They believe the body may have been preserved in formalin, and are investigating information they received that an obstetrics and gynaecology clinic once operated at the site. KYODO NEWS
