- The mortuary at the 37 Military Hospital is getting ready for a mass burial exercise for unidentified and unclaimed dead.
- The hospital administration has underlined the necessity to solve the situation since the buildup of these remains has hampered regular operations and produced congestion.
- The most recent mass burial drill took place on March 11, 2017. The hospital will hold the mass burial on September 1, 2023, to avoid further congestion.
- The hospital is asking the public for help in locating and claiming the dead. Families are invited to stop by the Department of Anatomical Pathology between August 3 and August 31, 2023, if they believe one of their loved ones may be one of the unclaimed dead.
- The hospital’s administrators ask for your patience and co-operation throughout this delicate procedure.
- It will be easier on the mortuary, provide closure for the families, and ensure that the departed are treated with dignity if the remains are identified and claimed.
