The remains of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco are set to be exhumed
on Thursday following a lengthy legal battle.
After his death in 1975 he was buried in a grand basilica in the
Valley of the Fallen where about 40,000 casualties of the civil war
are interred.
The exhumation is a key priority for the ruling Socialist party and
comes ahead of elections scheduled for November 10th.
