Officers said they have to make further enquiries as part of the 'complex and upsetting' investigation
Police officers have returned to make "further enquiries" at a house where the remains of a baby were found over two weeks ago.
Police discovered the remains of a baby two days later. The force said the incident is still being treated as isolated and there was no wider threat to the community. A spokesperson added: "Our investigation has seen many force resources come together to understand the circumstances of how these remains came to be here.
The baby's gender and cause of death are yet to be confirmed. Five people, aged between 20 and 70, were arrested on suspicion of concealing a death and unlawful burial. They all remain on police bail at this time. "This is to conduct further enquiries which will ultimately assist my investigation and I hope to get us closer to finding out the full circumstances. I want to be clear, as to dispel any speculation, we do not believe there are remains belonging to any other parties at this property.
