Motive still unclear
Up to now, the murder suspect was considered completely blameless and did not even have a criminal record. Top lawyer Rudolf Mayer, who is representing the 28-year-old murder suspect: "You wouldn't believe him capable of such an act. My client says that he is innocent. He also has no motive."
