IN MOSCOW
RUSSIAN prosecutors have reopened an investigation into the deaths of the last tsar and his family nearly 90 years ago after claims that the remains of Alexei, the 13-year-old heir to the throne, may have been found.
The announcement of the reopened inquiry, while a routine matter, signalled that the government appeared to be taking the claims by archaeologist Sergei Pogorelov seriously.
Mr Pogorelov said bones found in a burned area of ground near Yekaterinburg belonged to a boy and a young woman, roughly the ages of Tsar Nicholas II's son, Alexei, and a daughter, Maria, whose remains also never have been found.
