Bodies of 70 inmates from the largest prison in the Philippines were laid to rest in what local officials described as the biggest-ever mass burial held by the facility. Weeks earlier, police had discovered corpses of prisoners who died in custody among decomposing remains at a nearby funeral home. The bodies had piled up after the mostly poor families of the deceased failed to claim them. The discovery has also put a spotlight on the country’s overcrowded prison system.
