Forensic experts exhumed the body of a victim of the 2010 Smolensk plane crash at a cemetery in Warsaw early on Thursday morning. The bodily remains of former Deputy Minister of Culture Tomasz Merta were sent to the Faculty of Forensic Pathology at the Warsaw Medical University. His is the fourth body to be exhumed as part of a new investigation into the tragedy.
In June 2016, a court decided to exhume the bodies of the Polish presidential couple and other victims in order to determine the reasons for the plane crash. A group of international experts will study the bodies in the search for new evidence for the accident investigation.
The body of former Polish President Lech Kaczynski and his wife Maria were exhumed in Krakow last week before being reburied.
All 96 passengers including the Polish presidential couple were killed, after a Tupolev Tu-154 aircraft of the Polish Air Force crashed near Smolensk, Russia, on April 10, 2010.
