HYDERABAD: Human bones and limbs surfaced during digging work on a plot for construction purpose near the Diplai Memon Society within the jurisdiction of the Baldia police station on Monday. The remains were handed over to Edhi volunteers for burial.

The Baldia SHO said that the plot was owned by a person belonging to the Memon community and currently residing in London. He quoted a labourer as saying that he noticed the human remains while lifting soil from the plot to take it away by his tractor-driven trolley.

The police officer pointed out that the plot was located next to a graveyard but a boundary wall separated the two sites.
