Overview
- A passerby handed a scorched glove to an RTL crew, saying it was found about 100 meters from the pond where Fabian’s body was discovered, and the item has been turned over to police.
- Authorities confirm a detention on urgent suspicion of murder; officials have not named the suspect, whom multiple outlets report as the 29-year-old ex-partner of the boy’s father.
- An autopsy confirmed a violent death, and investigators place the likely killing between 11:00 and 15:00 on 10 October at a location other than the pond, with the body likely burned to conceal traces.
- Fabian reportedly knew the suspect through her years-long relationship with his father and continued contact after their separation, according to media reports and the mother’s lawyer.
- Police briefly reopened the discovery site before re-sealing it for renewed searches, prompting questions about possible contamination, while investigators describe the case as evidence-led and still developing.
