BERLIN (AP) — A German man arrested in the slaying of a 4-year-old migrant boy from Bosnia has confessed to killing another child, prosecutors said Friday.
Suspect Silvio S., 32, who was apprehended Thursday in the Oct. 1 abduction of 4-year-old Mohamed Januzi, also confessed to kidnapping 6-year-old Elias Sturm in July from a playground in Potsdam, near Berlin, prosecutor Michael von Hagen told reporters.
The suspect, whose last name wasn't released in line with German privacy laws, told authorities he had killed Mohamed a day after abducting him from the capital's central registration center for migrants, the Berlin prosecutor said.
After sexually assaulting the boy in an apartment in his parents' house in the state of Brandenburg, outside Berlin, the suspect said he strangled Mohamed with a belt "to prevent the noise of his screams," von Hagen said.
