\u201cThe man is believed to have travelled to Slovenia several times in his car. He could not be contacted by the investigating police,\u201d a November 26 press release stated.<\/p>\n

He was located following reports of a car burning in a \u0160entilj casino carpark close to the border with Austria.<\/p>\n

Reports suggest he did not explain how his red Volkswagen had caught alight.<\/p>\n

Several suspicious details of Pieper\u2019s final hours had already been reported by the Daily Mail.<\/p>\n

On the morning of her disappearance, Pieper allegedly texted friends about a \u201ccreep in the stairwell\u201d of her Graz apartment building.<\/p>\n
