During an interview with the caretaker of the Sri Krishna Medical College and Hospital, Janak Paswan said, “After post-mortem, all the bodies are dumped in the forest behind the hospital. I never tried to ask the authorities about these skeletons.”
Officials added that most of the skeletons were placed in sacks.
During an interview with ANI, Superintendent SK Shahi said, “The post-mortem department takes care of the dead bodies. This is really inhuman if they have dumped the bodies in open. We will ask their department head to call an inquiry regarding the matter.”
