The crime occurred in a hotel located in Saarland, although it was initially reported in Mainz. The hotel, a five-story building, is situated in Rhineland-Palatinate, not Saarland. Two bags, possibly belonging to the victims, were left behind in the hotel room. The background of the incident remains a mystery, with the police yet to provide any clear motive.
