Construction works for the North-South Corridor along Bukit Timah Road near KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH) have uncovered four coffins on the site of a former century-old Christian cemetery.
In an exhumation notice published in The Straits Times’ Classifieds section on Wednesday (Dec 3), the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said next of kin have 14 days to register their claim to the unidentified coffins.
Responding to AsiaOne’s queries, LTA said that the coffins — without tombstones — were found in October and November during works for the North-South Corridor.
The authority has since filed a police report.
