U.S., Israel, Greece offer to help solve theft of corpse

Cypriot police say law enforcement authorities from the United States, Israel and Greece have offered to help solve the bizarre theft of former president Tassos Papadopoulos’ corpse.
Spokesman Michalis Katsounotos said the kind of help is still being determined, but that assistance is welcome.
Authorities have already sought Interpol’s help in the macabre case, which has shocked Cypriots and left police stumped over the thieves’ motive.
The former Greek Cypriot leader’s body was dug up and stolen from a suburban Nicosia graveyard on Dec. 11 – the eve of the first anniversary of his death.
Katsounotos said Wednesday that British-supplied computer software is helping to analyze evidence.
Papadopoulos was president from 2003 to 2008.
