Venezuela spikes plan to display Chavez | |
2013-03-17 | |
[UPI] Venezuela has decided not to embalm the body of late President Hugo Chavez and put it on display, the government's information minister says. In a Twitter message, Ernesto Villegas said embalming had been ruled out after Russian medical advisers said the body would have to be transported to Russia and remain there for several months, CNN reported Friday. Acting President Nicolas Maduro said Wednesday the embalming process was "quite difficult and that the decision "should have been taken much earlier."
