ENGLAND – The British police found 39 dead bodies inside a truck at an industrial estate near London.
The discovery of the bodies – 38 adults and one teenager – was made in an industrial site in Grays, about 20 miles (32 km) east of central London on Wednesday.
The 25-year-old driver from Northern Ireland remained in custody on suspicion of murder.
All those in the container were pronounced dead after the emergency services were called.
The Bulgarian Foreign Ministry said while the vehicle was registered in Bulgaria by a company owned by an Irish woman on June 19, 2017, it had left the next day and never returned.
Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said his country had no other connection with the deaths.(Reuters)
