Ah the guy who claim he found it has been in question before on some of his discoveries.
Also the claim they have done the DNA work is questionable at best.
Please remember Jesus and Mary were very common names.
This has been brought up time and time again and been prove to be a fraud.
So I am not worried.

Yes, I just saw the news on TV. It is amazing. It seems to be the bones from Jesus and Maria Magdalena because of the writings on the tomb, refers to their names and families members. I am very excited with the news, but I have to admit being very doubtful too.
The evidences are strong but lacks on qualities. I bet that at that time, there were scams around as well.
Jesus at that time became a very popular person. Some awful people to get advantage of his success, could have faked that tomb to make money on his reputation.
I guess, this is a mystery the roman church burned long time ago during Inquisitions, or crusades.
I don't know, maybe it's just a crazy assumption, but I have my doubts about the tomb belong to the same Jesus on the Bible.

Yes, one alleged site is in India.
See the UK BBC documentary showing a burial site in Kashmir, India.
Your statement contained no details so I have provided what I have heard (India). There is another story announced on 23-Feb-2007 (yikes, the same day as the movie the Number 23 was released) regarding Jerusalem’s Talpiyot neighborhood, with the discovery of a 2,000 year old cave containing ten coffins. Folks can see the two videos and come to their own conclusions.

There are mulitple sites that different groups claim to be the burial site for Jesus of Nazareth. There will be even more burial sites to come I am sure.
Even been to Israel? You will tour mutiple burial sites!

If indeed it is "Jesus" then it is a fraud, for that was NOT the name of the Messiah. And Acts 4:12 tell us that there is only one name by which people can be saved!

This finding could be legitimate but will be fought with tooth and nails by the Church. It will be a good test for the Church, to accept the investigations and research.
However, no matter what they prove, will be discredited by the Church. The truth doesn't really matter.

Yes, I do. It's interesting, because if it's found to be true, his remains are there.. guess he didn't resurrect after all.. here's the article you're looking for dated February 23, 2007:
