I don’t see what their angle on this is.
I never believed the sunroof story in the first place. I don't know why they even tried putting that out there. Now that the Interior Ministry is obviously involved in a cover-up, I wonder what their overall role in this really is.
Pinging jeffers for any additional information.
As I understand the rough chronology, she was given a quick burial, then the story about the sunroof handle was pushed, then someone else in the government promised to allow the body to be exhumed if the party asks for it. I’m guessing that someone knows that an exhumed body will clearly show bullet wounds, and everyone will be watching real closely. Someone thinks it is better to say so now rather than wait for a possible exhumation.
I think that’s at least one way of explaining it.
