Arian case - Child's body: Investigators expect autopsy results shortly

After the discovery of a toddler's body in the northern part of Lower Saxony, it is expected that the result of the autopsy will be announced presumably on this coming Thursday. A police spokesperson in Rotenburg an der Wümme made this statement in the morning. It is clear that the deceased child is likely the six-year-old Arian from Bremervörde. The boy has been missing since the 22nd of April and was intensely searched for by hundreds of personnel - on land, from the air, and in the water.

For Thursday morning, talks with the public prosecutor's office are planned, according to the police spokesperson. The public prosecutor's office is therefore reportedly involved, as there is a possibility of criminal activity. However, a crime cannot be ruled out in this case. "But we cannot know with one hundred percent certainty until the results of the autopsy," explained the spokesperson.

On the afternoon of Monday, a farmer discovered a dead child during fieldwork on a meadow in Estorf in the Landkreis Stade. The investigators are highly likely to assume that the deceased child is the six-year-old Arian from Bremervörde. The autopsy of the body is expected to provide information on the identity, cause of death, and time of death.

The autopsy is scheduled to take place in Lower Saxony, providing crucial information such as the identity, cause, and time of the toddler's demise. The discovery was made on a meadow in Estorf, a part of the Landkreis Stade, in northern Germany. The public prosecutor's office in Lower Saxony will be involved in the case due to potential criminal activity, although this remains uncertain until the autopsy results. The deceased child, presumed to be Arian from Bremervörde, was found in an emergency situation.
