Baku-APA. Polish prosecutors on Monday began the exhumation of President Lech Kaczynski, who died in a plane crash in Russia in 2010, to examine his remains as part of an investigation into the tragedy likely to deepen political divisions in Poland, APA reports quoting Reuters.
The crash near Smolensk in western Russia, which killed 96 people including Kaczynski's wife, top army brass and the central bank governor, has become one of the most fraught public issues in Poland, with some claiming foul play.
An inquiry by Poland's previous, centrist government ruled pilot error caused the government's Soviet-made TU-154 to crash into the ground in heavy fog during an attempt to land.
