Horrible discovery in Vienna: dog and businessman brutally killed!

In Vienna-Favoriten, two grisly discoveries have aroused public interest. A shocked walker made a terrible discovery in the Raxstrasse area on Wednesday: in an abandoned sports bag she found the carcass of a young dog that was seriously injured from multiple puncture marks. She immediately alerted the police, who are now investigating animal cruelty. The affected dog, a Husky mix, was about five to six months old, according to the University of Veterinary Medicine. The investigation is focusing on the cruel way in which the animal was disposed of, and police are appealing for information to help them catch the animal abuser krone.at reported.

Murder investigations in Favoriten

Another shock hit the Favoriten district when police were called to the discovery of a body in a suitcase. The 59-year-old businessman, who had been brutally strangled, was found next to a dumpster by a passerby in late February. Suspicion quickly fell on a 28-year-old acquaintance of the victim, who did not confess, although the intensive interrogations revealed different statements about his motive. Police spokesman Philipp Hasslinger indicated that financial disputes, particularly unpaid debts, were being considered as a background to the crime. The suspect will be transferred to a correctional facility today while the investigation continues kosmo.at announced.
