The brother of the detective who headed the investigation into the case of Natascha Kampusch, the Austrian girl held captive for nine years after being kidnapped when she was 10, has claimed his sibling was murdered because "he knew too much."
Colonel Franz Kroll of the Vienna police died from a gunshot wound to the head outside his Graz home in June 2010, six months after Kampusch had escaped the clutches of Wolfgang Priklopil, her kidnapper. His service pistol was found at his feet and an apparent suicide note outlining family and work problems led to an official investigation concluding he had committed suicide.
But his brother Karl, who has always disputed the suicide verdict, now says new research by Professor Eduard Leinzinger, director of forensic medicine at Graz University of Medicine, undermines the official explanation.
Professor Leinzinger has concluded Kroll was killed by a right-to-left head shot, and not the left-to-right shot recorded in the investigation. A right-to-left shot would not account for the body position Kroll was found in, suggesting the corpse was positioned after death. Full story...
