One of the world’s most famous poets,Pablo Neruda, died in the chaos following Chile’s 1973 military coup but it wasn’t cancer or malnutrition that killed him, forensic experts say. Some people have speculated that Neruda was killed by agents of Gen. Augusto Pinochet after the coup that brought him to power 44 years ago. “We still can't exclude nor affirm the natural or violent cause of Pablo Neruda's death,” Aurelio Luna, one of the panel's experts, said Friday. “Until the day I die I will not alter my story,” Manuel Araya told the BBC in 2013. They didn’t want Neruda to leave the country so they killed him.”The Associated Press contributed to this report.
