The parcel, which arrived at the head office of the international police organisation on Monday, was later taken by police van to a laboratory about 100 km (60 miles) away from the southeastern city of Lyon, where Interpol is based. The laboratory found four envelopes in the parcel. They contained a slab of rotten meat, an empty packet of cigarettes, two rotten eggs and toilet paper smeared with excrement and urine, the judicial sources said. The parcel was mailed in Miami and came from a man there who has regularly sent Interpol such material since 1994. "He's one of their regular correspondents," a police source said. The area around the Interpol building was cordoned off for more than three hours following the parcel's delivery, after which the workers were allowed back into the building.
