French experts re-examining evidence have confirmed their earlier conclusion that the 2004 death of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat was not the result of poisoning, a prosecutor told AFP Monday.
The prosecutor for the western Paris suburb of Nanterre said the experts found there was no foul play in Arafat’s death, which sparked immediate and enduring conspiracy rumors. […]

That’s what I heard
I remember how his appearance changed over the preceding two years from healthy-looking to skeletal and gaunt.
Back when he was Ringo Starr's doppelganger.
Arafat died from complications following a car accident. He was rear ended.
