German orchestra musician ‘fed three people rat poison’
NewsA member of the Schleswig-Holstein Symphony Orchestra has been charged in Hannover with attempted murder after apparently poisoning his 93 year-old mother and two fellow-musicians.
The incidents have been traced to Hannover in September last year. The alleged poisoner’s mother was rushed to hospital from her care home and found to have brodifacoum in her blood.
The two musicians said their colleague, 62, offered them a garlic dip that made them seriously ill.

It would make a perfect case for Maria Furtwängler, the conductor’s granddaughter (pictured), a popular detective on German TV.
