The dismembered remains found in two duffel bags along Kaohsiung’s Love River (愛河) this week were yesterday identified as belonging to an elderly man, police said

Two sanitation workers from the Kaohsiung Environmental Protection Bureau found one bag floating in the water while cleaning the river banks on Monday, police said.

They took it to a nearby garbage depot, and then found a similar black duffel bag on the river the next day.

After seeing traces of blood leaking from the second bag, one worker opened it and found decomposing human remains.    [FULL  STORY]
