Tragic find: Missing Fabian from Güstrow found dead in the forest
There is a dark atmosphere in Güstrow. Eight-year-old Fabian, who had been missing since October 10th, was found dead in a forest near Klein Upahl. A walker made the gruesome discovery about 15 kilometers west of Güstrow, fueling fears in the region. Loud Mercury The public prosecutor's office and the Rostock police headquarters assume foul play, which raises the suspicion of a crime.
The medical identification of the body is still pending, but the Rostock Criminal Investigation Department is taking over the investigation. What is striking is that there was no evidence of a crime before the body was found, but the situation changed drastically when the body was discovered. Criminalist Axel Petermann explains that the circumstances of the location allow conclusions to be drawn about possible crimes, especially through injuries or marks on the child's clothing.
Investigations are ongoing
During the time Fabian was missing, there were reports of a man near Bützow who was said to have tried to approach a child. However, the police have ruled out a connection with Fabian's disappearance. Nevertheless, Peterman emphasizes the importance of investigating this incident to pursue possible leads. There are two possible lines of investigation here: either the perpetrator comes from Fabian's circle of friends or family or is a stranger who fell victim to Fabian.
It is noteworthy that the location of Fabian's discovery was unexpected, as the search operation had previously focused heavily on the area around the island lake, where corpse-sniffing dogs had arrived. As Peterman explains, there is always uncertainty surrounding the use of sniffer dogs, and while they are a useful tool, misinformation can arise.
The environment is surveyed
It quickly became clear that Fabian's environment - his school, friends and parents - had already been questioned during his search for missing persons. These interviews are crucial to uncover any possible clues or inconsistencies that could point to a possible perpetrator.
The tragedy shocked the Güstrow community and raised many questions. As the investigation progresses, the residents hope for the quickest possible clarification and justice for little Fabian.
