Viewer discretion advised due to possible graphic content. Mortuaries are, by nature, a somewhat gruesome venue, but perhaps nowhere more so than in New Delhi, India, where thousands of unclaimed, unknown bodies rack up every year. A New York Times article documents the horrors of the Sabzi Mandi mortuary, where bodies pile "on every available surface, including the blood-smeared floor," and workers bring in their own soap to fend off TB and other disease after handling the bodies. "You'll find them one on top of the other," the mortuary's chief doctor tells the Times. "Where are we supposed to put them?" His question is valid, since local police estimate finding about 3,000 bodies each year with no ID. Many seem to be migrant men who come to New Delhi to work. Source: www.newser.com/ This
