Romanian court denies request to exhume former dictator
A Romanian court today denied a request by late communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu’s daughter to have her parents’ remains exhumed to ensure that authorities were telling the truth about the burial site.
Ceausescu and his wife, Elena, were executed after a popular revolt toppled his administration in 1989. The government said they were buried in the Ghencea Cemetery in western Bucharest, the capital.
