US couple arrested decades after assuming false identities

KATHMANDU: A couple living in the United States for decades under false names stolen from dead babies have been charged with identity theft and conspiring against the government, in a case tinged with suspicion of espionage.

Walter Primrose and his wife Gwynn Morrison, both born in 1955, were arrested Friday in Hawaii. According to documents, a search of the pair’s home turned up an old photo of the couple dressed in KGB uniforms.
