Marie Ladenburger

Maria Landenburger, a 19-year-old medical student from Germany.

One day, while she was in a park, she was attacked by an Afghan migrant, Hussein Khavari. He chased her, pushed her to the ground, and knocked her off her bicycle. As she lay there, he strangled her and repeatedly raped her before leaving her unconscious on the riverbank, where she ultimately drowned. Police later identified him through DNA evidence. He was eventually convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for rape and murder. It later emerged that, before arriving in Germany, he had already served time in Greece for attempting to rob and murder another young woman.
