Stumbled across this bit of news.
Quote:
A judge in Turkey has ruled that a man accused of murdering two County Down women will be required to have a bone marrow test to find out how old he is. Recep Cetin, who is suspected of killing Marion Graham and Kathy Dinsmore, faced a hearing on Thursday.
He claims he is 17, but lawyers representing the families of the two women believe he is older.
If he is over 18, he will be tried in an adult rather than juvenile court

I've googled and can find nothing on this test. I'm assuming because the argument is between 17 and 18 that it has some form of accuracy (days/months?).
Anyone heard of it?
