The suspect in the case of the killed six-year-old from Pragsdorf near Neubrandenburg has been remanded in custody. The district court of Neubrandenburg had the 14-year-old taken into custody on Tuesday afternoon, said a court spokeswoman for the German Press Agency. During the presentation to the magistrate, he did not provide any information on the advice of his lawyer.
Pragsdorf - But there is an urgent suspicion.
According to police, the German teenager was the last person to see the victim alive on September 14 at the soccer field in Pragsdorf. During interrogations, the 14-year-old had become entangled in contradictions, the police announced on Tuesday. In addition, DNA traces were found on the clothing of the deceased and on a knife - the alleged murder weapon - which can be assigned "with a very high probability to the 14-year-old", it said. The motive is still unclear. Dpa
