09/Feb/2010
A murder inquiry is under way after a woman's skeleton was found wrapped in carpet on a building site in Manchester city centre.
The bones were unearthed after a skull was spotted by workmen at a site on Miller Street, near the CIS Tower.
It was treated as non suspicious until post-mortem tests found the woman had a fractured neck, collarbone and jaw.
Police are unsure how long the body has been there and are now looking through missing persons files.
