Is this for real, or is it a hoax?

Stefan,
This is not an uncommon claim there are many Christian, Buddhist and Hindu holy people that are claimed to be uncorrupted. Probably the most famous in the west is the body of Catherine of Bologna. Her body has been on continuous display since 1463, over 500 years.
