Mystery surrounding Fabian's death: Police are looking for witnesses after an explosive call!

The Rostock criminal police are still looking for the murderer of eight-year-old Fabian from Güstrow. The case has kept the region busy since the boy disappeared without a trace on October 10, 2025. Frequent reports from concerned citizens and neighbors are gradually taking a serious turn these days. On October 14th, the shocking discovery of his body was made in a pond near Klein Upahl. This brought a wave of grief and outrage from the community, who paid their respects at a touching memorial service last Sunday.

As ndr.de reports, the ZDF program “Aktenzeichen XY… unsolved” showed an urgent call for witnesses on Wednesday evening. Moderator Rudi Cerne and Chief Inspector informed the viewers about the current investigation. It is believed that Fabian was killed between 10:50 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. on the day of his disappearance. To cover up the evidence, the unknown perpetrator tried to set the body on fire.

Witnesses urgently sought

A photo of the crime scene showing a fire was shown on the program. The police are asking for information from anyone who observed something suspicious near the pond on October 10th. Information about people and vehicles in the area is particularly important. The Rostock police have set up a hotline at 0800-5977268, which is open around the clock to receive information.

The last hours before his disappearance remain a mystery: Fabian stayed at home on October 10th due to feeling unwell while his mother worked. When she returned he was no longer there. According to Berliner-zeitung.de, she eventually reported him missing after her own search efforts were unsuccessful. The police assume that Fabian was taken to a vehicle because the location where he was found is further away from his home.

Investigations intensified

Intensive search measures have been taken in recent weeks, including riot police searching large piles of rubbish in a waste disposal company and also a farm in Reimershagen, but without any tangible results. The investigators keep all information about this extremely sensitive. “Many tips have been received, some of which seem to be promising,” said Fabian Puchelt from the Bavarian State Criminal Police Office.

The entire Güstrow region is called upon to respond to this tragic matter. Relatives and neighbors stand together and show their support. “We have to stick together and do everything we can to ensure that this perpetrator is caught,” says one neighbor. At the same time, there is hope that information from the public can advance the investigation.

In summary, it can be said that the Fabian case touched not only the family, but also the entire citizenry. Police are asking anyone with information to come forward. Only together can we shed light on the sad events.
