ATHENS - The chaotic state of Greece and its public institutions was once again thrust into the spotlight on Oct. 25 when police announced they had arrested a childless couple in Athens on suspicion of attempting to pass off an eight-month-old Roma girl as their own.

Announcing the results, Bulgaria's Interior Ministry said genetic profiling proved that Sasha Ruseva, a Roma woman, was the mother of the mystery girl known only as Maria.
