Police in Wigan have reopened the scene t the property on Marsh Green where the remains of a baby were discovered two weeks ago
Five people remain on police bail at this time as police say the find is still being treated as an isolated incident, and we do not believe there are remains belonging to other parties
Detective Chief Inspector John Davies leading the investigation said, “This continues to be an upsetting incident and unlike anything I have come across during my policing career so far.
“Officers and forensic experts are back today at Marsh Green and could be there for some time. This is to conduct further enquiries which will ultimately assist my investigation and I hope to get us closer to finding out the full circumstances.
“I want to be clear, as to dispel any speculation, we do not believe there are remains belonging to any other parties at this property. It is being treated as an isolated incident.
“I understand that seeing officers back at this property may cause concern, and anyone who feels that way is welcome to speak to those at the scene. You will be listened to, and I hope reassured that this is just about us being as thorough as is possible.
“Me and my team are determined to get to the bottom of what has happened here, but as processes and enquiries are still ongoing, are continuing to keep an open mind.”
