The body parts of several babies have been found in a parcel destined for the United States, Thai police said Sunday. A baby's head, several feet and "sheets of skin" - including one taken from an adult and bearing a large tattoo - were discovered Saturday after staff at a Bangkok parcel company scanned the package.
"They were not from one body but were in small pieces," Police Major General Chawalit Prasopsin told AFP on Sunday. "They have been sent for forensic examination to confirm if they were from babies who died after delivery or in the womb," Chawalit said.
The parts were found preserved in containers filled with formaldehyde solution, leading Chawalit to speculate they could be for "a collection or for educational purposes".
