Mexico to see if monument contains founders' bones

MEXICO CITY -- Mexicans have long believed the remains of 15 of their independence heroes lie in crypts beneath the Independence Monument in the capital, but experts now say they are not so sure.

The government plans to open the crypts for maintenance and research as part of the 200th anniversary of the 1810 revolt against Spanish rule.

A top official of the Bicentenary Commission says the bones may be missing, jumbled or misidentified or perhaps contain other people's remains.
