NICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) - March 8, 2010
Spokesman Michalis Katsounotos said a tip-off led police to the
corpse late Monday. But he wouldn't elaborate in what state the
corpse was or what evidence investigators have to lead them to
believe it could be that of the former Greek Cypriot leader.
Katsounotos said DNA testing would be carried out to positively
identify the body.
Papadopoulos' corpse was stolen from a graveyard in suburban
Nicosia on Dec. 11 - the eve of the first anniversary of his death
from lung cancer. The motive remains a mystery.
Papadopoulos was president from 2003 to 2008.
