The remains were found on February 24 at Wolf’s Lair, which served as Hitler’s chief headquarters from 1941 to 1944.
Polish prosecutors have discontinued an investigation into human skeletons found at a site where Adolf Hitler and other Nazi leaders spent time during the Second World War because the advanced state of decay made it impossible to determine the cause of death.
The compound of about 200 Nazi bunkers and military barracks hidden in deep woods was the site of the failed assassination attempt on Hitler by Colonel Claus Stauffenberg on July 20 1944.A spokesman for the prosecutor’s office in nearby Ketrzyn town, Daniel Brodowski, said police secured the remains after they were found by a local group, Latebra, which searches for historical objects.
It discontinued the investigation in late March due to a lack of evidence that a crime had been committed, Mr Brodowski told the Associated Press.
