On August 4, 2024, photos of some suspects have already been published, and the authorities managed to successfully identify these people. The Viennese police have currently evaluated further photographs of suspects. At the order of the Vienna public prosecutor's office, the police ask the public for help. There is an urgent call to witnesses who have information about the identity of the persisted persons to contact the police.
