In 1991 a severely hypothermic man was found in Hessen. Shortly afterwards he died in a hospital. Another call to witness at “Aktenzeichen XY” should help to finally clear up the case.
On December 6, 1991, Tado Lancor wanted to return to Yugoslavia from Frankfurt am Main. Until then, the 61-year-old was temporarily in Stockstadt am Rhein in southern Hesse (Groß-Gerau district). Shortly before going home, he went to the bank and withdrew a large amount of cash from there.
One day later, on December 7th, a passer-by discovered the man at 3:55 a.m. in a parking lot on the federal motorway 5 in the Gemünden area (Vogelsbergkreis). Despite immediate medical help, he passed away in a hospital that same day.
Medical research revealed that Tado Loncar was apparently given knockout drops which, when combined with the hypothermia, led to his death. On the basis of their previous investigations, the officials also assume that the 61-year-old was probably brought to his later location in a vehicle and abandoned there.

The police appeal to all people who can give clues in connection with the murder investigation, to call 06641 / 971-0 or by email at [email protected]. In justified cases, the information can also be treated confidentially. In addition, the public prosecutor in Gießen has offered a reward of 5,000 euros.
