GWADAR: The remains of two unidentified persons were found on Tuesday in a ditch near the Khuda-i-Abadan area of Panjgur district.
“The bodies appear at last three months old and are beyond recognition,” a senior Levies Force official said.
The victims are believed to have been buried after being killed by unidentified armed men.
The remains were recovered by Levies personnel after people informed the local administration when someone saw a hand coming out of the ditch in a mountainous area near Khuda-i-Abadan. The bodies were recovered in the presence of a magistrate.
The bodies had decayed to such an extent that only the skeleton was visible, officials said, adding that the remains had been shifted to the district hospital in Panjgur.
Samples from the remains would be sent to a lab in Islamabad for DNA testing, the only option to identify the victims, doctors said.
On Monday, three bullet-riddled bodies were found at a desolated place in the Tump area of Kech district.
