Late Polish President's Body To Be Exhumed

New Government Reopening Investigation Into Accident Which Fatally Injured Lech Kaczynski

The body of late Polish President Kaczynski is to be exhumed to determine if the accident was actually an assassination.

Deutsche Welle reports that the late President's brother, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, has agreed to the exhumation so that the body can be examined. The caskets were sealed in Russia after the accident, and no autopsy was performed in Poland.

President Kaczynski was fatally injured when the TU-154 he was aboard went down while attempting to land in a heavy fog at an airport in western Russia in 2010. Jaroslaw Kaczynski said he has long suspected that the crash was not an accident, but Polish and Russian investigators said at the time that there was no evidence to support that claim. Now, with the populist Law and Justice party in power, the government is ordering the exhumation they say to see if the cause of the accident can be determined.

Only about 10 percent of Poles support the move, according to the report. Moscow has still not released the wreckage of the airplane to Poland.
