Peru: Manager of exhibition says human lung "was really stolen"
LivinginPeru.com
Isabel Guerra
After a long silence, Susan Hoefken, known now in local media as “la robapulmón” ("the lung robber") declared to the press, saying that the recent theft of a lung from a exhibition “The Human Body, real and fascinating,” was not a part of any marketing strategy.
"The lung was stolen, that's a fact; I did not hide it. I have not invented the story," she said in a local TV interview.
Visibly angry, Hoefken said that she has had to move to another house and that she is receiving death threats on her cell phone and via email.
She denied having told anyone that the robbery was an invention, and also said she is unaware of the reasons why Premier representatives accuse her.
“Why did the police have to wait 11 days to publicize that email, and not through the regular process but through the media?” she wondered.
