The death drama surrounding the three-year-old boy who died of agonizing starvation and thirst in Tyrol is causing horror. Thomas Müller, head of the Innsbruck Children's Hospital, emphasizes: "This is all very unusual." And the "Krone" knows where the little boy's three sisters are now being kept and what will happen to them. 

Just a few hours after the Innsbruck public prosecutor's office filed the application on Wednesday morning, the regional court ordered the three-year-old's mother and father to be remanded in custody. "This is due to the urgent suspicion of the crime of murder on the grounds of the danger of committing the crime," emphasizes Birgit Fink, head of the media office of the Innsbruck Regional Court.
