REYKJAVIK, Iceland — Authorities in Iceland have exhumed the body of American chess champion Bobby Fischer to determine whether he is the father of a 9-year-old girl from the Philippines.
Police district commissioner Olafur Helgi Kjartansson said Fischer was reburied after DNA samples were taken.
Fischer died in Iceland in January 2008 without a will, and legal wrangling continues over his estate. Last month, Iceland’s supreme court ordered DNA testing to determine whether he was the father of Jinky Young, whose mother, Marilyn, says she had a relationship with Fischer. The Associated Press
