Medical examiner

A one-year-old girl on the island of Kos died from choking on food, as determined by a forensic examination in Rhodes.

Police sources, as reported by state broadcaster ERT, indicate the cause of death likely stems from choking, possibly from ingesting fried potatoes, with no evidence of sexual abuse, which was the initial speculation.

A coroner is trying to establish the identity of a skeleton found by a hiker in a duffel bag at the entrance of a cistern in the area of Sounio in southern Attica on Thursday.

Attica police and the medical examiner of Athens University are hoping to get a lead on the deceased's identity and cause of death to determine whether foul play was involved.
