Case History
The victim was located on A motorway near Pirka, Austria on January 9, 2005.
The victim had not died where she was found. Following her death, the perpetrator tried to set fire to her but did not succeed. After that attempt, the victim´s left ear was cut off - according to police there were signs of an "overkill". The victim might have stayed in Austria as an illegal prostitute.
Isotope testing led police to believe that the victim had lived in Greece or Croatia up to the age of about 16. She is thought to have spent her last months in Germany or a neighboring country.
