The body from the 6-year-old Elias Sturm was found in a 40-50 centimeter deep hole in an allotment, which belongs to a man called Silvio S.

A DNA-test has proved that the body belongs to the little boy. It is also proved that he has been buried for almost four months, which means he was buried not long after he was kidnapped.

 

Elias Sturm disappeared when he was at a playground the 8th of July near his home and he has been missing since that day. There have been many searches for him, and in one of them, the murder also was searching for him with 1000 other volunteers, the German police says.

There were more than 1300 calls to the police accusing Silvio S. of being the murder, but there were no clues.       

The German police was lead on track when the mother of Silvio S. contacted the police after she had seen pictures taken from monitoring cameras where Silvio S. was together with a little 4-year-old boy called Mohamed Januzi. After that, he admitted the murders of both Mohamed Januzi and Elias Sturm to his parents and the police.

 

The 1st of October, Mohamed Januzi was kidnapped while he was playing at a playground in Berlin. His body was found in the luggage compartment of Silvio S.’ car the 29th of October.

 

The police assume that the murder cause is that Silvio S. is a pedophile who could not control his desire. It has also been out earlier that Mohamed Januzi was sexually abused more than once before he was strangled with a belt the day after he was kidnapped, the German police says.

 

Silvio S. is now in jail in Germany where he is detained in isolation.

 

The allotment has now been searched, but no more bodies were found.
