A woman reported to the District Prosecutor’s Office in Stalowa Wola (Podkarpackie Voivodeship) suspecting that the remains found in February during the demolition of a building at the Stalowa Wola Power Plant may belong to her father. Biological material was collected from the woman and compared to that extracted from the remains.
– There is a suspicion that the remains found in the building may belong to the person indicated by this woman. Biological material was collected from her and, together with biological material collected from the remains, it was sent to a laboratory in Warsaw for comparison – Adam Dubiel, spokesman for the District Prosecutor’s Office in Tarnobrzeg, told us.
He added that the prosecutor’s office is waiting for the expert opinion in this case, which is expected to be ready in November.
They were demolishing the building and debris fell from the ceiling
The incident took place at the beginning of February at the Stalowa Wola Power Plant. During the demolition of a building at the power plant, the ceiling collapsed, from which human remains, fragments of clothing, a shoe and a blanket fell.
As Adam Cierpiatka, the head of the Stalowa Wola district prosecutor’s office, informed us then, based on the examination of the bones, it was determined that they belonged to a man and that their exposure time was approximately 10 years. Experts did not find any traces on the bones that could indicate that other people contributed to the man’s death, but investigators do not rule out such a version.
The prosecutor also said that no documents were found at the scene of the incident confirming the identity of the deceased person or enabling his identification.
The bones were analyzed, DNA was extracted from them, and now the material is compared with the police database of wanted people who went missing about a decade ago.
The investigation into this case is ongoing under Article 155 of the Penal Code, which concerns unintentional manslaughter.
