Police raised the confirmed death toll in London's terrorist attacks to 52 as tense commuters returned to work Monday on the subway and bus network targeted by the bombers four days earlier.

Authorities said the process of retrieving the bodies of victims killed in Thursday's morning rush-hour attacks continued to be a laborious process, with workers still pulling corpses from a mangled Underground train deep beneath the streets of the capital. The confirmed toll had stood at 49.
