Fugitive Falls From Plane

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - The body of a Russian man found in a
ditch in the Netherlands apparently fell from the landing gear
of a KLM plane en route to Amsterdam from Moscow, police said
Friday.

The man, wanted by Russian police on suspicion of rape,
stowed away in the landing gear compartment of a KLM Boeing 737
with another man on Sept. 2.

But when the plane lowered its undercarriage he fell from a
height of around 1,950 feet into a water-filled ditch in the
city of Zaandam, a few miles northwest of Amsterdam's Schiphol
airport.

``He was already dead when he fell out of the plane,'' Zaandam
police spokesman Martin Eyben told Reuters.

A Russian passport was found several miles from the body,
which was discovered on Sept. 7.

The body of the other Russian, who also wanted by Russian
police on suspicion of rape, was found in the wheel well of the
same aircraft on Sept. 2.
