00:01Authorities in Kenya have uncovered a disturbing discovery in Karicho.
00:05On Tuesday, officials exhumed dozens of bodies, including fetuses, from a suspected mass grave.
00:11The investigation began after police received reports of a secret burial over the weekend.
00:18What I found is quite unusual.
00:21It was one mass grave and the bodies were stuck in gunny bags.
00:29We found seven adults and 25 children who qualify.
00:37Some of them are neonates and others are fetuses.
00:41So in total, we have 32 bodies.
00:45We also found six body parts, four legs and two hands.
00:53The area has been cornered off and a probe launched.
00:56We will plan for autopsies to determine the causes of death.
01:02Some of these look like they have come from mortaries and others from hospitals.
01:08But we are going to determine that when we finish with the autopsy exercise.
01:15This comes just three years after the Shakahola Forest Massacre,
01:19where hundreds of bodies were found along Kenya's coast
01:22Ernest and one of the world's deadliest cult-related disasters.
