A third suspect has been arrested after killing a 13-year-old in Vienna.

In addition, a fourth man is being sought internationally, as Austria's police chief Franz Ruf announced.

The four are suspected of having sexually abused and killed the girl.

According to police investigations, the youngster went into a suspect's apartment.

There she was drugged and abused.

The autopsy revealed that she was suffocated.

Her body was discovered last Saturday in a residential area in Vienna on a green area.
