Remains of eight people found in a cave in Navarra

The bones discovered by a group of cavers could be more than 30 years old

Human remains recently found in a cave in the mountains of Navarra could be more than 30 years old, and are believed to be those of six men and two women. The bones were discovered by a group of three speleologists who were caving in the Andía mountain range on November 14 and were examined in situ by forensic experts last week.

They were removed from the site by specialist mountaineers from the Civil Guard and analyses will now be carried out by expert forensic anthropologists.

The National Police said in a press release this Thursday that they have ruled out that the remains are of those persons who have recently been reported missing.

In the Baleares meanwhile, the remains of a human body have been discovered in the boot of a car found parked in the Binidalí area of Mahón, the capital of Menorca. Javier Tejero, the central government representative for Menorca, told Europa Press that the remains could be between two and four years old. It’s understood personal possession were also found in the vehicle.

An autopsy was due to take place in Palma, on Mallorca.
