A 50-year-old man from Gangkofen in the district of Rottal-Inn went to Eggenfelden police station on Saturday morning. There he told the officers that he had killed his partner. The officers then drove to the home of the two and found the body of a woman.
Around 11 a.m. on Saturday, July 9, the 50-year-old Bosnian man arrived at Eggenfelden police station and confessed to having killed his girlfriend. Police officers together with the ambulance service and emergency doctor then went to the man’s family home in a district of Gangkofen. When they arrived there, they discovered the body of a 46-year-old woman. “The 50-year-old man had lived alone in the house with the 46-year-old woman,” according to the press release of the Lower Bavarian police headquarters.
The woman’s body was then taken to the forensic medicine department of the University of Munich. There, in cooperation with the Passau criminal police, the medical experts found out on site that the 46-year-old woman had apparently been killed by considerable force with a heavy object.
At the same time, the alleged suspect was temporarily arrested. He was investigated by the Passau police and the Landshut public prosecutor’s office on suspicion of homicide. Among other things, it is being investigated whether relationship problems were a possible cause of the assault. It is likely that on Sunday, the Landshut public prosecutor’s office will apply for an arrest warrant against the 50-year-old on urgent suspicion of murder, the statement continues. He will also be brought before an investigating judge.
