A judge will determine Friday if the body of Urooj Khan will be exhumed.
In a WGN exclusive interview, Tony Morad a friend of Khan’s said he’s shocked.
“Nobody can believe it,” said Morad. “He was very nice.”
The process of Khan’s exhumation could begin as early as next week.
The medical examiner will seek to determine if the cyanide that killed Khan was ingested or inhaled, which could provide details of his death.
Urooj Khan, 46, died in the summer of 2012, one week after he won a $1 million prize from an Illinois Instant Lottery ticket.
His death was initially ruled natural causes, until a tip led to further testing which revealed cyanide poisoning.
No one has been charged. The investigation is on-going.
