I think you're right, Nev. I think maybe he didn't really die when they said he did, but once they'd said it, they couldn't go back on that. So they've been hunting him secretly ever since. And they got him. So now they can say the French found the body and have returned it.
So, yeah. I'm sorry, but I think it really must be him they've got. That's the only reason I can think that they'd have waited so long and 'find' it now.
