Mehtap Savasci comes from a Turkish family and was born in Germany. She works in the Integration Department of the Immigration Department in Kassel. On 7 October 2014, she is abducted early in the morning on her way to work. The neighbours see a fight. Later she reports sick to the voicemail of a colleague.
Her older brother is suspected of having something to do with the disappearance. He first lives in Offenbach and later moves to Maintal. The police found incriminating evidence about his van. He was arrested on 14 October. The police kept looking for Methap.
On 7 November one finds her body buried in an allotment garden in Wiesbaden, which was located via her brother's mobile phone data. The brother is in custody and is silent.
In October 2015 Mehmet will be sentenced to life imprisonment for murder by the regional court of Kassel. The court sees as a motive that the victim did not comply with the offender's ideas about "family and respect". The defence had admitted that he was involved in the murder, but that the evidence was too weak to convict.
