Meanwhile, an autopsy would be conducted to try to determine the age of the babies and whether they were dead at birth, said Chief Inspector Au Yeung Tak of the New Territories North division to reporters. He added the bottles were 30 centimeters (1 foot) tall and the bodies had no obvious signs of injury.
The police have detained a 24-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman – believed to be the parents – on suspicion of illegal disposal of bodies. Following the tenants moved out, the landlord sent the cleaning person to the apartment on Friday and the incident came to limelight.Milestone Alert!
