Following the horrific discovery of a male body in a suitcase in Vienna-Favoriten, the police have now released new details about the motive of the suspect who has already been caught. The suspect (28) is said to be an Austrian citizen with Egyptian roots who was heavily indebted to the victim (59).

The victim, a successful businessman from Vienna, is said to have been killed by the 28-year-old after the suspect was unable to pay the outstanding debt.

Died by strangulation
According to the police, the body is said to have had several broken bones and died by strangulation. An attentive local resident then made the terrible discovery at the end of February. In broad daylight, he found the body in a suitcase next to a dumpster in Quellenstraße and immediately alerted the police. 

At the beginning of March, the fugitive suspect was finally arrested in Vienna.

Investigations are in full swing
The man will be questioned extensively on Friday about further background information and his role in this shocking crime. The investigation by the Vienna State Criminal Police Office is still in full swing.
