Was Rebecca still at a bus stop on the evening of 18 February?
The case of the missing student Rebecca (15) from Berlin continues to raise many questions. Even if
a suspect is currently in custody - the circumstances surrounding the disappearance of the girl are so far completely unclear. The investigators know so far only that her phone between 7 and 8 clock in the morning on 18 February the last time
connected to the router in the apartment of her sister . But now a new witness claims to have seen Rebecca at a bus stop almost twelve hours later.
"I'm 1000 percent sure that it was Rebecca"
"She stood behind me at a bus stop, as normal as always [...]
she had phoned someone," Samantha J. (18) tells RTL. However, she does not know who Rebecca was phoning with. "I was on my way to a birthday and then boarded the bus 15 minutes later, where she was still standing at the bus stop, and I do not know where she went afterwards."
Rebecca herself knows Samantha only by sight - but she is absolutely sure that the girl she saw at the bus stop is the missing person. "I recognized her face, and when I see people, I do not confuse them," she says. She was "more than 100 percent sure" that the girl had been Rebecca.
Samantha knows Rebecca's sister Vivien from before
Samantha was in a cheerleading group with Rebecca's sister Vivien. The two had but no longer contact. "When I saw Rebecca missing the day after, I immediately wrote Vivien," says Samantha. She also wants to have told the police, of which she was heard today as a witness according to their own testimony.
If Samantha is not mistaken, her statement would be a hot hit for the police.
An inserted beagle tracked Rebecca's lane to a bus stop - that's where Samantha wants to see her. But even if Rebecca was still at the bus stop in the evening - more than two weeks have passed since then, when there was no sign of her life. Police are currently targeting Rebecca's brother-in-law. Rebecca was seen in the apartment the last time he lives with her sister.
After being provisionally released last week, he is now back in custody. According to prosecutors, he is silent on the allegations against him.
Rebecca's family is behind him and is sure that he is innocent
