Arrest following discovery of remains in Rhine near Stein
Following the discovery of human body parts in the Rhine, Swiss police have arrested a suspect, according to Kleine Zeitung. According to prosecutors, the arrested man is a 43-year-old from Bangladesh.
The remains were discovered on the previous Sunday in rubbish bags in the Rhine and on the banks nearby. The victim was identified as a 33-year-old man from Burundi who had been living in an asylum accommodation in Stein near the German border and had been reported missing.
The suspect had shared a room with the victim in the same asylum home. During a search of the accommodation, evidence was secured that strengthened suspicion against the fellow resident, according to prosecutors.
The exact sequence of events remains unclear. There are currently no indications of a politically or religiously motivated killing. During the course of the investigation, the suspect displayed psychological irregularities, whose possible role in the act is the subject of further investigations.
