TIMES WIRE REPORTS
Poland exhumed the remains of wartime prime minister-in-exile and military leader Gen. Wladyslaw Sikorski for tests in an attempt to settle the mystery surrounding his death in 1943.
Sikorski died in a plane crash in Gibraltar after visiting Polish forces fighting with the British against Nazi Germany in the Middle East. Many Poles believe he was assassinated.
Test results are not due for several weeks.
