A 70-year-old woman was discovered lifeless in a detached house in Weigelsdorf, a cadastral municipality in the Baden district, on Monday. A carer made the grim discovery, as vienna.at reports, citing the Kurier.

Specialists from the Lower Austria State Criminal Office have taken over the investigation. Chief Inspector Johann Baumschlager stated on enquiry that officers are pursuing every lead. The state prosecution office in Wiener Neustadt ordered the body to be secured and commissioned a forensic medical examination.

Whether the elderly woman fell, whether an accident occurred or whether a third party was involved – this cannot currently be ruled out. Experts from the crime scene unit and the homicide division of the State Criminal Office began processing the case. The circumstances of the death remain unclear for the time being.
