Remains of chess champion Bobby Fischer exhumed
Tuesday, 6 July 2010 01:41 UK
The remains of US-born chess champion Bobby Fischer have been exhumed in Iceland to establish a paternity claim.
Lawyers for nine-year old Jinky Young and her mother, Marilyn, who had a relationship with Fischer, claim she is entitled to Fischer’s fortune.
The Supreme Court in Reykjavik ruled last month a tissue sample was needed to prove she was Fischer’s daughter.
Fischer, who died in 2008 leaving an estate worth an estimated $2m (£1.4m), took Icelandic citizenship in 2005.
His former wife and other relatives have also pursued inheritance claims.
“The procedure was conducted in a highly professional and dignified manner,” Olafur Helgi Kjartansson, the sheriff in the southern Icelandic town of Selfoss, said.

This sucks. What would happen to this woman if she lied and the kid is not Fischer’s?
The Icelandic court made it the only option by requiring it to prove paternity. If she didn’t do it, she would have denied her daughter her rightful and deserved inheritance, and the whole estate would have gone to the wrong party. I’m sure she’ll be vindicated.
If Bobby isn’t the father it just means a few things:
1. The woman was unfaithful.
2. Bobby had a taste for women.
3. Jinky is a mean name to give a girl.
4. I can’t beleive this vegetable spread I’m eating isn’t butter!
5. E4 is the best opening.
That was expected, because Jinky is not really a child of Fischer, The woman should be in JAIL for disturbing Fischer’s Tomb!
