According to current findings, the suspects threatened the 39-year-old and demanded money from him. When he refused, they allegedly struck and kicked him forcefully.
After the man lost consciousness and lay on the ground, they allegedly took various valuables and left the scene.
The Duisburg public prosecutor’s office is treating the offense as attempted murder and particularly serious robbery. All three men are Polish nationals who worked for a temporary staffing agency and therefore knew each other.
Both suspects were brought before a judge on Monday at the request of the Duisburg prosecutor’s office. The judge ordered pretrial detention on suspicion of attempted murder and particularly serious robbery.
