Newborn baby skeletons found in bag

[Dracos]

Police announced they uncovered a plastic bag stuffed with the skeletal remains of at least six newborns Sunday after searching the grounds of a Christian missionary hospital in the central Indian town of Ratlam.

Director General of Police A.R. Pavar said they found the remains hidden in a drainage ditch on the hospital's property in Ratlam after scouring the grounds following a tip off from a local.

All 390 bone fragments are thought to be from newly born babies and fetuses, but Pavar said an investigation will offer more information
Ratlam's superintendent of police, Satish Saxena said it was not immediately clear whether the hospital was disposing of bones properly.

"They may not have buried the dead bodies of the newborn at a graveyard where they should have been," he said, adding also that the bones may not have been properly incinerated.

1. Girl babies, perhaps???

What are all those horny young men going to do, if they keep gender selecting before birth?

5. Pretty soon no more horny young men!!!

6. They'll get less fussy, and start marrying 'out of their class' for starters

And then they'll get less fussy still, and actually seek brides from...gasp$!! ....other CULTURES. A lot of tradition, like dowries and so forth, might go by the wayside...

2. Aborted fetuses that don't get a burial because they are not babies? nt

3. Offspring of American soldiers?

A four-year occupation falls within a plausible time frame.

7. If so, they'd be AWOL. We aren't deployed there.

The military attaches at the embassy aren't likely suspects.
