The discovery was made around 3 a.m. on Tuesday when sand intended for road construction work was deposited at the site near Sheela Nagar in Visakhapatnam. Workers found two sets of skeletal remains wrapped in white cloth, each decorated with garlands.
The remains were carefully recovered from the dumped sand and secured for further investigation. Authorities have initiated a probe into the circumstances surrounding the discovery and the origin of the bodies.
The Sheela Nagar-Sabbavaram road construction project has become the focus of investigation as police work to identify the deceased and determine how the remains came to be deposited at the work site. The condition and wrapping of the bodies suggest they had been disposed of deliberately.
Investigators are examining whether the discovery is connected to missing person cases in the region or represents a more recent incident. The wrapped and garlanded remains suggest a deliberate burial or disposal rather than accidental placement at the construction site.
