In the case of a body buried about 25 years ago in a basement in Vienna-Margareten, several leads have already been received by the investigators.

"Each of these is being checked by the officers of the Vienna State Criminal Police Office," a spokesman for the State Police Directorate told APA. The police had recently published photos of the clothing of the man, who was about 30 years old at the time of death, and asked the public for assistance.

Body Found in Viennese Basement: Several Leads Received

Although his dentition was perfectly preserved, the body has not yet been identified. So far, it is only certain that the man must have been 1.70 meters tall and slim and was the victim of a violent crime. The man also wore a red tracksuit.

Construction workers noticed a strong smell in a basement compartment during renovations in an old building on Hundsturm in April. The workers then found a body wrapped in a plastic bag. The men finally alerted the police, who thoroughly searched the building. In the course of the evaluation of the evidence, it finally became apparent that the man had died as a result of external influence. His body showed, among other things, stab and cut injuries on his arms and hands from a possible defensive fight, as it was said at the time.

Police Ask Public for Help

The detectives do not want to answer exactly how the man was killed for investigative tactical reasons. The police are asking the public for clues that match the facts known so far. Even people to whom the perpetrator or perpetrators may have confided are asked to report. Relevant information is requested (also anonymously) directly from the Vienna State Criminal Police Office at 01-31310-33800 and is accepted at any police station.
