Chile to reinvestigate Pablo Neruda's mysterious death
An appeals court in Chile has ruled that the death of Nobel laureate Pablo Neruda, who died days after the country's 1973 military coup, should be reinvestigated following claims of possible poisoning. The court ordered new procedures, including a calligraphic analysis of the death certificate and a meta-analysis of foreign test results, to clarify the cause of his death. Neruda's family and supporters have long contested the official explanation that he died of cancer, and suspicions of foul play have persisted since his death.
