Termite exterminators working on a house renovation in Tokyo have uncovered the bodies of several babies preserved in bottles, according to a report.

Some of the babies still had their umbilical cords attached, Kyodo news agency says.

Three or four such bottles were found on Monday beneath the floor of a house abandoned for the past three years, where an obstetrician had once lived.
