Forensic Experts Find Evidence of Poisoning in Death of Nobel Prize Winning Chilean Poet Pablo Neruda Nearly 50 Years Ago

On Monday, a family member of Nobel Prize winning Chilean poet Pablo Neruda revealed that forensic experts have determined that Neruda died of poisoning nearly 50 years ago. This contradicts the long-standing official position that Neruda died of complications from prostate cancer. This suspicion was first raised by Neruda’s driver, who argued for decades that he was poisoned.

The public release of the experts’ findings has been delayed twice this year, first due to internet connectivity issues of one of the experts and then again because a judge requested additional information. The report is now scheduled to be released on Wednesday.

The family member, Maria Reyes, said that the experts had determined that Neruda was poisoned with a substance that was not available in Chile at the time. She said that the experts had also found evidence of a third-party presence in the poet’s hospital room.

Reyes’ comments have not been confirmed by the forensic experts from Canada, Denmark and Chile who are scheduled to publicly release the report. The experts have not commented on the cause of Neruda’s death, and it is not yet known if they will address the poisoning allegations.

The death of Pablo Neruda has been shrouded in mystery for nearly 50 years, and the public release of the experts’ report is highly anticipated. It is hoped that the report will shed light on the circumstances of Neruda’s death and provide closure to his family and fans.
