Dead Swiss have a paternity test



Geneva - 72 years of uncertainty - they have for the Geneva Andreas Jäggi an end soon. He brought a corpse to the paternity test, as the Swiss newspaper "20 minutes" reports.
For ten years fighting against all kinds Jäggi courts for his rights. He wants to know if he is indeed the son of his alleged father (died 1976). And three years after the European Court ascribes to him that right, he can finally hope for answers.
The Decision: The body of the suspected Papas is exhumed - for a paternity test.
The lawyer of the 72-year-old confirmed: "There is an absolute right to know his background." Also Jäggi, who grew up with foster parents, is relieved: "70 years I could never say the word" Daddy ". But now it will not be possible for the dead take their secret to the grave."
