...small hillside town of Embu reopened the local cemetery's tomb 321, from which they had exhumed some mysterious remains two weeks earlier, and turned up four more teeth and several bone fragments. On the outskirts of nearby Sao Paulo, police descended once again on the dilapidated bungalow where the mystery man was said to have lived, and uncovered two bullets and a box of medical supplies. Then, returning to the home of Wolfram and Liselotte Bossert, self-proclaimed friends of the dead man, policemen came upon a tape that featured martial music and a speech by Adolf Hitler...
