Their bodies were found decades ago, but their identities are still unclear: the international police organization Interpol wants to come a step closer to solving long-ago murders of women in Europe with a campaign.

Together with the German, Belgian, Dutch, Italian, French and Spanish police, it is searching for clues to 46 women's bodies in the "Identify Me" campaign.

Most of the women were murdered
Most of these women were murdered or died under suspicious or unexplained circumstances. On the campaign website, Interpol has published facial reconstructions as well as pictures of jewelry and clothing found on the women. Interpol quoted its Secretary General Jürgen Stock: "Even the smallest piece of information can be crucial in solving these unsolved cases."

The public can be the key to finding a name and a past and ensuring long overdue justice. There is no case from Austria.

Information, details and photos of the unsolved cases can be found on the Interpol website!

Interpol launched the campaign last year with 22 cases from Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. Around 1,800 tips were received from the public. One woman was identified 31 years after her death.
