Th Oldham Grave Shocker
Skeletons found in the basement: A detailed account of the discovery
For a period of more than three decades, the skeletons of nine babies were kept hidden in a basement in Oldham.
Investigators have yet to determine the identities of the infants. They are still unsure if they were stillborn or born alive, and if so, the cause of their deaths.
The Circumstances Surrounding the Discovery
The grim discovery was made on August 25 when police were called to a house on Limeside Avenue in Oldham to investigate reports of a strong smell coming from the basement.
Officers discovered nine tiny skeletons wrapped in towels and plastic bags, hidden in a cupboard under the stairs.
It is believed that the remains had been there for some time, possibly even decades, as the house had been empty for several years.
The Investigation
The police have launched a full-scale investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding the babies' deaths.
Forensic experts have been examining the remains, and the results of toxicology tests are still pending.
The police are also looking into the history of the house to try to identify the occupants who may have lived there at the time of the babies' deaths.
The Impact on the Community
The discovery of the babies' skeletons has shocked the local community.
Many people are wondering how such a thing could have happened and why the remains were not discovered sooner.
The police have appealed for anyone with information about the case to come forward. They are particularly interested in speaking to anyone who may have lived in the house on Limeside Avenue in the past.
