13 unclaimed bodies

MUMBAI: Of the 172 people who died in the recent terror attacks, the bodies of 13 civilians have not been claimed. These bodies are at three different hospitals.

J.J. Hospital has nine unclaimed bodies, according to data collected on Monday afternoon. Five of the nine are listed as Indians. There are three foreigners and one Israeli identified as Nemy Rubyneum.

The location where the bodies were found has not been mentioned in the list at the hospital’s helpdesk. The nationalities too are not confirmed and only provisional. “They are based on inference drawn from the appearance of the persons,” said Vijay Gaikwad, a social worker at the helpdesk.

There are four other unclaimed bodies, two at Nair Hospital in Mumbai Central and two at K.E.M. Hospital in Parel.
