As part of the routine measures to decongest the Police Hospital’s morgue, the Police Hospital Administration is making preparations to embark on mass burial for unknown and unclaimed bodies.

A statement issued by the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Mr Emmanuel A. Bossoh, the Administrator of the Ghana Police Hospital, and copied to the Ghana News Agency, on Wednesday, said the burial would take place 21 days after the announcement.

It, therefore, advised the public to contact the Pathology Department of the Police Hospital for identification of persons who they had not seen for some time.

This, the Police Hospital said, would complement the search to prevent those unknown bodies from being marked for the burial.
