The police is advising family members to report to the hospital in order to claim the bodies.

The Police Hospital has announced to the general public, a mass burial exercise for unclaimed bodies.

According to the Greater Accra Police Command, there are about 200 unclaimed bodies at the Police Hospital morgue. The bodies have either not been claimed by family members or they are yet to be identified by members of the public.

The mass burial is scheduled to take place at the end of March 2017 and according to the police is a routine measure aimed at decongesting the Police Hospital morgue.
