Interpol is seeking public's help in European cold case murders
LYON — Interpol has launched “Operation Identify Me” to identify the remains of 22 women found in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany.Their remains were discovered in the three participating countries over a number of years. Who they are, where they are from and why their remains were found in different locations is not known.Partly because the deceased women were likely from countries other than where they were found, it has not yet been possible to establish their identities.

The victims were buried in makeshift graves.Some of the women are thought to have come from specific regions in Eastern Europe, but in other cases, all options remain open.Establishing the...
