·I thought this was a compelling history mystery. Hopefully any remaining family will get some answers. I wonder if the watch will help the investigation.....
Police in Sicily are investigating whether human remains found in a secluded cave on Mount Etna are those of a journalist who disappeared more than 50 years ago.
The remains found on Tuesday night are of a man believed to have died between the 1970s and early 1990s. Police said the man was believed to have been at least 50, was 1.7 metres (5ft 7ins) tall and had “congenital malformations to his nose and mouth”.
He had been wearing long dark trousers, a woollen jumper, a striped shirt and black tie. A bobbled woollen hat and dark green raincoat were found alongside the remains, as were some coins in the old Italian currency, lira, an Omega watch, a comb with its case and size 41 Pivetta shoes.
