<p>A body bag 10 for retrieving partially or fully submerged corpses is constructed from flexible tear-resistant and water porous material, e.g. polyester netting, which retains any body or body parts within the chamber but allows water within the chamber to escape. The bag comprises a body enclosing chamber 11 closed by a zip type fastener 12 and provided with several carrying handles 14,17a,17b,17c located around the edges of the chamber. The body bag is substantially rectangular when viewed in plan and is surrounded by a border of webbing [13, Fig. 2] which incorporates the carrying handles or to which the carrying handles are attached. The zip fastener may be arranged in a C-shape fashion, extending along three sides of the bag. An eye may provided on the zip fastener to allow the zip to be securely fastened to an eyelet on the bag to prevent opening [shown in Fig. 3]. The body bag is able to retain forensic or evidential material.</p> |
