Rebecca Reusch Case: Police End Brandenburg Searches, Send Secured Traces to Lab

Results are expected in weeks, keeping attention on the brother‑in‑law long treated as the central suspect.

Overview

  • Investigators concluded a two‑day operation on properties in Tauche and nearby Herzberg linked to the 33‑year‑old brother‑in‑law.
  • Police reported securing traces for forensic analysis but announced no notable finds at the sites so far.
  • Excavators, ground‑penetrating radar, drones, video documentation and cadaver dogs were deployed during the search.
  • More than 50 tips reached authorities after a renewed appeal, including queries about a raspberry‑coloured Renault Twingo seen on the motorway toward Poland around February 18, 2019.
  • Police say they are not searching for a living person; the suspect denies involvement, and laboratory evaluations will take several weeks.
