A man who killed and then dismembered his wife, throwing some of her body parts off the roof of a building in central Berlin while their six children cowered in a nearby room, is to be held in a psychiatric institution.

The 32-year-old named only as Orhan S., has admitted killing and beheading his wife Semanur, 30, on Sunday night, in a case that left Germany horrified. He threw her head and other body parts into the courtyard as police approached him on the roof of their apartment building.

“There is reason to believe that he was psychologically unbalanced. It is likely he will now be held in a closed psychiatric institute,” a detective told the Berliner Zeitung newspaper after a psychiatrist examined the man.

One relative told the BZ newspaper that Orhan had suffered psychiatric problems, speaking of depression with schizophrenic episodes.

Toxicological examinations will also be conducted to determine what drugs and medicines he may – or may not – have had in his blood stream. Neighbours have told reporters that he regularly took medication for mental disorders as well as illegal drugs.

The couple’s six children, aged between one and 13 were not physically harmed in the attack – before which their mother locked them in a room to keep them out of the way according to some reports.

They have been placed together in state care while authorities try to figure out if anyone else in the family can look after them, the paper said.

A group from the area called “Neukölln Awake!” was planning a demonstration in the street for Tuesday evening to show their solidarity as “Turkish men against violence and barbarism” – the group of largely men with Turkish roots campaigns against domestic violence.

Exclusive: Causeway Cannibal Had Bible, Recently Smoked Pot When He Attacked


MIAMI (CBS4) – Police now believe that Rudy Eugene, the so-called Miami Zombie, was not only naked, but was also carrying his bible, when he nearly beat a homeless man to death and chewed off three-quarters of his face.

A senior law enforcement official told CBS4′s Jim DeFede, Eugene’s bible was found with some of its pages ripped out at the scene of the May 26 cannibal attack that has captured worldwide attention.

The torn bible pages were found not far from the victim’s body. In interviews last week, Eugene’s mother described her son as a “church boy” who always carried his bible with him.


CBS4 News has also learned the preliminary toxicology report from Eugene’s autopsy revealed Eugene, 31, had been smoking marijuana near the time of the incident.

Investigators had hoped the initial tests might lead them to quickly identify other drugs Eugene might have taken which could have caused such psychotic behavior, but the law enforcement official said it will now be at least two months before all the lab work will be completed.

New details are also coming to light regarding the morning of the attack.

As CBS4 News was the first to report, Eugene had driven to South Beach during the early morning hours of May 26 for Urban Beach Weekend. Eugene parked his car near Tenth and Alton Road and after apparently not being able to get the car to start again decided to walk the three and a half miles over the MacArthur Causeway to downtown Miami.

Along the way he stripped off his clothes, tossing them on the road before ultimately encountering his 65-year-old victim, Ronald Poppo, who lived around and under the causeway.

According to the law enforcement source, surveillance video from a business near Tenth and Alton revealed that Eugene spent between 30 and 40 minutes around his purple Chevy festooned with Haitian flags. He can be seen getting in and out of the car during that time, as well as walking around it.

Detectives canvassed the area to see if Eugene had gone to that part of Miami Beach to visit someone, but they were unable to find anyone in the area who knew Eugene or even recall seeing him that morning.

Inside the car investigators found a Koran and five empty bottles of water. The water appeared to have been recently purchased, the law enforcement source told DeFede.

The water, and the notion that Eugene was extremely thirsty, offers investigators another clue into the possible drugs Eugene may have been taking.

For instance, people who take Ecstasy often crave water. Detectives won’t know if Eugene took Ecstasy, or some other drug, until the complete toxicology report is issued.
