Decomposed body found wrapped in blanket

"A decomposed body wrapped in what appeared to be a blanket was found
in an empty lot, prompting police to launch a murder investigation."

"They suspect that the body belongs to a murder victim, or that someone
illegally discarded it there. (Mainichi Shimbun, Japan, Dec. 17, 2004)"
You don't say....
