Authorities have found the bloodied corpse of a missing nurse in an abandoned Nazi bunker where the SS used to coordinate mass exterminations in Germany.
The alleged victim, Bianca Simon, 26, is believed to have been abducted and stabbed while she was cycling from a train station in Oranienburg and possibly passing through the forest on Thursday, according to Mirror.
The young mother was last seen with her bicycle at midday, during which she reportedly told a friend she was on her way to see a doctor. Simon, however, failed to show up for a work meeting at 2 p.m. that same day.
She would also fail to fetch her five-year-old son from a local daycare facility that afternoon.
Authorities were alerted late Monday night at around 10 p.m. by assembly workmen who found her body in a former SS radio bunker at Karo Ass, four miles outside of the main town, the Daily Advent reported.
The abandoned bunker, which dates back to World War 2, is covered in moss and is hidden deep in the bushes near the Concentration Camp Sachsenhausen.
Police used 14 sniffer dogs to scour the area but found no trace until the grisly discovery in the bunker. Her bicycle was also recovered from the "Ace of Diamonds" bunker, a former SS communications center, which is less than 100 yards from where her corpse was found.
Authorities suspect that the mother was stabbed to death, noting that the "externally visible injuries speak for a homicide."
"We cannot say what was the attacker's motivation behind the attack yet," police spokeswoman Dorte Rohrs said. "We have not yet been able to identify a suspect. We do not know why the young mother had to die."
A spokesman for the public prosecutor's office said that the office has no direct evidence of another crime scene, Yahoo! News noted.
The woman's five-year-old son is now under the care of his grandmother. Investigations are continuing.
