After the killing of a twelve-year-old from the Siegerland Freudenberg, two girls are under suspicion. According to dpa information, they are twelve and 13 years old. Previously, the "Bild" newspaper and RTL had reported.

The missing twelve-year-old girl was found dead on Sunday near a bike path on Rhineland-Palatinate territory directly on the border with North Rhine-Westphalia. On Monday, the Koblenz police and prosecutor's office confirmed that the child had been the victim of a crime. "The investigations carried out so far confirm the suspicion that the girl has been the victim of a homicide," said a spokesman for the prosecutor's office.

Way home of the killed girl is a mystery

For Tuesday at 13.30 p.m., the authorities have invited to a joint press conference in Koblenz. Until then, no further information will be given to the public, said a police spokeswoman. For Tuesday, a result of the autopsy of the killed girl was expected.

The child was last seen on Saturday around 17.30 clock in Freudenberg, as it started after visiting a friend on foot the way home. When the twelve-year-old did not come home, the search had begun in the evening with strong forces of police and fire brigade.

It is still a mystery why the dead girl was not found on the way home from her friend in the direction of Freudenberg city center, but in the opposite direction and thus on Rhineland-Palatinate territory.
