In the case of an alleged serial offender who is said to have held and raped at least one woman for days, the investigators say they still have no overview of the other possible victims. A spokesman for the Mosbach public prosecutor’s office said on Friday that he could not provide any information on this at the moment. This is partly due to investigative tactical reasons, partly nothing is known about it. However, other victims have been identified.
A 37-year-old is said to have held a 26-year-old against her will in Walldürn in northern Baden-Württemberg between October 15 and 19 and violated her. The man’s 23-year-old brother is said to have helped him. The victim finally managed to alert an acquaintance who called the police on the emergency call.
The suspicion of other alleged victims arose from the search of the crime scene and the further investigations. According to the public prosecutor’s office, at least one of the two German suspects is said to have lived in the property in Walldürn (Neckar-Odenwald district). The suspects had partially commented on the matter, said the spokesman.
The 37-year-old man is accused of taking hostages in combination with particularly serious rape and dangerous bodily harm. He was taken to a psychiatric hospital with a placement arrest warrant. The man’s 23-year-old brother is said to have provided help. He was arrested on suspicion of aiding and abetting.
