Body of fourth Spanish fatality likely found in Haiti

Rescuers in Haiti have retrieved a body which has been provisionally identified as that of a Spanish EU diplomat, her family said Thursday, DPA reported.

There was no official confirmation yet that the body was that of Pilar Juarez, who belonged to the EU delegation in Haiti.

Juarez, 53, was at a meeting in a United Nations building when it collapsed in Port-au-Prince.

Another body was earlier erroneously identified as being hers.

Juarez would be the fourth Spanish fatality in the earthquake. The others included a married couple and a police officer who worked for the United Nations mission in Haiti.
