Legal Medical Service experts carry the coffin of Chile's late President Salvador Allende after being exhumed in Santiago, Chile, Monday May 23, 2011. Nearly 38 years after Chile's former president died in a military coup, his body is being exhumed in an exercise that even now is fraught with political overtones. The hope is that forensics can solve a mystery: whether Allende committed suicide or was murdered by the troops who mounted Gen. Augusto Pinochet's attack on the presidential palace.
