MUNICH, Germany (AP) - A woman was stopped at Munich airport after
baggage control handlers found the skeleton of her brother sealed in a
plastic bag in her luggage, police said Wednesday.
The 62-year-old woman and her 63-year-old friend, who both live in
Italy, were hauled in by airport police Tuesday after a scan of the
bag showed a human skull and other bones. The women were traveling to
Italy from Brazil.

It turned out, however, that the woman was simply trying to fulfill
the last wish of her brother--who died 11 years ago in Sao Paulo, Brazil
--to be buried in Italy.

The travelers produced the appropriate papers from Brazilian
authorities for the unusual transport, and were allowed to carry on
their way to Naples--bones and all.
