Poland president's burial stirs row


Plans to bury Poland's late president in a castle where kings have been interred has triggered divisions across a nation still mourning the death of its leader. The funeral of Lech Kaczynski and his wife Maria, who were killed in a plane crash in Russia on the weekend, is expected to take place this Sunday at Wawel castle in the southern city of Krakow. But the choice of site has sparked anger among some groups, triggering protests on the streets and campaigns on social networking websites.
