Overview
- On May 9 the body of 19-year-old Remo Aimé Pollert was found in the Isar near Munich and an autopsy concluded he drowned.
- Munich police have publicly characterized the case as an accidental death and no new investigative developments have been reported.
- A funeral service was held at St.-Georg-Kirche in Munich and Remo was buried in the Bogenhausen cemetery with personal farewell items on his casket.
- After weeks of family silence, 81-year-old actress Diana Körner made her first public appearance at the Friedenspreis des Deutschen Films and told RTL the loss is “an unermesslicher Verlust” while stressing the family must grieve privately.
- The family's stance highlights two immediate effects: sustained public interest in a private bereavement and a likely continued request for press restraint unless official facts change.
