At Yala mortuary we saw 21 bodies listed as “unknown men.” Most of them bore marks of torture, tied with ropes, polythene bags on their heads and some had deep cuts. The bodies are decomposing fast and it’s likely they will be buried in a mass grave very soon. #RiverYalaBodies pic.twitter.com/wOFQe1FOnU
