Two suspects were arrested after a dead woman was found in Hockenheim (Rhein-Neckar district) last week.
The 43 and 44-year-old men had the woman's five-week-old baby with them, the police announced on Friday.
They were taken into custody on Thursday.
She is strongly suspected of having killed the 27-year-old woman - according to previous information, a Ukrainian refugee.
Hockenheim - The five-week-old girl was taken to hospital as a precaution.
A DNA comparison revealed that she was the daughter of the person killed.
The toddler is now in the care of the youth welfare office.
The special “Rampe” commission that was set up continues to search for the victim’s 51-year-old mother.
A passerby discovered the woman's body last Thursday near the banks of the Rhine at a so-called NATO ramp.
She was housed with her daughter and her mother in a refugee accommodation in the Rhein-Neckar district.
