One Facebook user uploaded the footage (here) alongside the caption: “Pope St. John Paul's body was exhumed yesterday after 12 years. However, the video is at least 12 years old and it does not show Pope John Paul II’s real body. It is titled Reliquias del Papa Juan Pablo II (Relics of Pope John Paul II), while the description adds that it was recorded at a school. Although Pope John Paul II’s remains were exhumed in April 2011 (here), they were not moved from Italy to Mexico. The video shows a wax figure of Pope John Paul II being displayed 12 years ago.
