MOSCOW — A top pro-Russia rebel commander in eastern Ukraine has given a bizarre version of events surrounding the Malaysian jetliner crash — suggesting many of the victims may have died days before the plane took off.

The pro-rebel website Russkaya Vesna on Friday quoted Igor Girkin as saying he was told by people at the crash site that "a significant number of the bodies weren't fresh," adding that he was told they were drained of blood and reeked of decomposition. ....

Girkin said "Ukrainian authorities are capable of any baseness."

There’s a fair amount of paperwork involved regarding placing a dead body on an international flight.

Extensive trauma while undergoing explosive decompression probably would not leave much blood left in the body.

Extensive abdominal trauma would also explain a fast onset of decomposition.
