Piano man riddle

Shocker of shockers, we're actually busy today, but I leave you with this newsbite:
Claims 'Piano Man' mystery solved

LONDON, England -- British police and social workers say they are no closer to finding out the identity of the mysterious so-called "Piano Man" despite claims he is a classically-trained Czech musician called Tomas Strnad.

Britain's Mail on Sunday newspaper published pictures of Strnad as a teenage keyboard player which they said showed "an uncanny resemblance" to the mystery man.

"Piano Man" stunned carers with a four-hour virtuoso piano performance after he was found wandering aimlessly near a beach on the Isle of Sheppey, Kent, southern England, more than seven weeks ago.

He was wearing a waterlogged dinner suit and tie, from which all the labels had been cut out.

He had apparently lost his memory has not spoken a word since. Rest of story
Seems like they could just ask a relative of Tomas Strnad to find out if Piano Man and Tomas are the same person? But, clearly there is some complication they are neglecting to mention, as usual.

More exciting posts after we attend a party for a great old bitty.
