After he is said to have killed his mother with a kitchen knife in Adnet (Tennengau) on Tuesday, today, October 26th, the 31-year-old suspected son was remanded in custody because of the risk of committing the crime and concealing the crime. This was announced by the spokeswoman for the Salzburg Regional Court, Christina Bayrhammerthe APA with. The man waived his right to appeal against his pre-trial detention. A new detention hearing will follow in two weeks.
The motive is still unknown
The son of the 67-year-old woman from Germany still did not confess, as Bayrhammer explained. The motive for the crime and the exact course of events were still unclear to the investigators. The woman was found dead in his apartment on Tuesday evening. The 31-year-old probably made the emergency call himself. The murder weapon, a kitchen knife, was found in the apartment by officers. Footprints, fingerprints and DNA traces were also found at the crime scene. The suspect – he is Austrian – has probably lived in the apartment building in Adnet for several years. His mother, a German citizen, lived in Berchtesgadener Land in Bavaria. But she was apparently often visiting her son’s apartment. (APA/October 26, 2024)
