In April 2018, the billion-dollar Tengelmann boss Karl-Erivan Haub was missing under mysterious circumstances.

His brother wanted to officially declare him dead - now he withdrew the application.

Cologne - The co-partner of the

Tengelmann

Group

,

Georg Haub

, has

apparently surprisingly withdrawn

the application for a declaration of death for his brother

Karl-Erivan

.

The

WAZ

reports

, citing the

Cologne District Court

.

The process should be continued first, it said.

Karl-Erivan Haub

, one of the richest Germans, set out on a ski tour alone at the beginning of April 2018 and never returned.

A large-scale search for the then 58-year-old entrepreneur was also unsuccessful.

The family assumed that he had a

fatal accident

on the

Klein Matterhorn

near

Zermatt

in

Switzerland

.

Haub's younger brother Christian then took over sole management of the

Tengelmann

Group

.

The process had

triggered a struggle for power and billions

in the family

empire, which

includes

the DIY chain

Obi

and the textile discounter

KiK

.

The managing and personally liable

Tengelmann

shareholder

Christian Haub

had offered the wife of his missing brother,

Katrin Haub

, according to his own statements, 1.1 billion euros for the company shares of the missing person.

Haub's brother Georg had initiated proceedings for a declaration of death at the Cologne District Court last October.

The corresponding applications from "

Christian Haub

and the

Tengelmann

Group

" would be upheld, reports the

WAZ

, citing a spokesman for the Cologne District Court.
