ANKARA:Paramilitary police on Turkey's coast with Lesbos have begun to place victims in black body bags as their corpses wash ashore. Among the dead seen by journalists is a young boy. The state-run Anadolu news agency says the death toll in Saturday's latest migrant boat sinking has risen to 39. Officials at the government offices for Turkey's Canakkale district say the death toll has risen above the previously announced figure of 33, but are declining to offer a new specific figure as coast guard vessels and diving units continue to search the sea. Photographers at the scene say police have taken some survivors to a local hospital for treatment for hypothermia and other injuries, other survivors into detention for questioning.
