Mr.
Yasser
Arafat was 75 when he died Nov. 11, 2004, in a French military hospital. He had
been airlifted to the facility just weeks earlier with a mysterious illness,
after being confined by Israel for three years to his West Bank headquarters.
The
discovery of traces of a radioactive agent on clothing reportedly worn by
Yasser Arafat in his final days reignited a cauldron of conspiracy theories
Wednesday about the mysterious death of the long-time Palestinian leader. This
discovery was made by a Swiss lab assigned by Mr Arafat’s widow Suha. The discovery
of traces of polonium-210 in clothing and other belongings provided by Arafat’s
wife, has subsequently led to call for the late leader’s body to be exhumed for
further examination. The development was first reported by the Al-Jazeera
satellite channel.
