PNG morgue too full to accept new bodies

Health concerns have been raised over mortuary facilities in the Papua New Guinea capital.

Port Moresby's one and only morgue can cater for about 60 bodies, but it is now full to capacity and can no longer accept new arrivals.

Built in 1991, the Port Moresby morgue can no longer cater for the capital's expanding population.

Shipping containers were brought in as back up, but the refrigeration units are faulty, leaving 20 bodies decomposing inside.
