Islamabad May 17. Pakistan police have exhumed a highly-disintegrated and disfigured body from a small roof in a park west of Karachi, which they suspect to be that of murdered American journalist Daniel Pearl.

``The body is beheaded. It is in ten pieces. It could be Pearl's body,'' a police official has been quoted as saying by the website of the local daily The News.
