The police said that, "considering the circumstances, especially due to the victim's injuries, this is a case involving organized crime."

It was also confirmed that the victim's limbs were damaged, that is, that several of his fingers were cut off.

During the search of the victim's apartment, the police found the body in an improvised hashish plantation.

The victim's identity has not yet been revealed, but he is probably a Serbian or a Montenegrin citizen, writes Oe24.

The body was accidentally found in the apartment in the Ottakring district.

Austrian press is reporting that the body was mutilated, and that a chair was also found in which the victim was most likely tortured before getting stabbed to death.

Numerous pieces of evidence, according to sources close to the investigation, indicate that this was done by the Balkan mafia.

The gruesome crime probably happened a few weeks ago, which will be determined later by the autopsy of the body, and it is said that the motive was a clash over drugs.
