An investigation has been launched into the disposal of deceased babies' ashes at Mortonhall Crematorium in Edinburgh between 1960 and 2011, following the discovery that they had been buried in a Garden of Remembrance without their parents' knowledge. The BBC has the story at www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-21147676, with STV also providing coverage on the original story at http://local.stv.tv/edinburgh/209373-mortonhall-police-called-in-to-investigate-the-crematorium/.
