Wolfgang Sielaff

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wolfgang Sielaff (* 1942 in Hamburg , Germany ) is a German criminalist who was, among other things, head of the Hamburg State Criminal Police Office (1989–1997) and Deputy Police President of the City of Hamburg. After his retirement, he got involved in the aid organization Weißer Ring : From 2004 to 2014 he was chairman of the Hamburg regional association and he is also a member of the board of the Weißer Ring Foundation.

His sister Birgit Meier, who lived in the Lüneburg district, disappeared in the summer of 1989. It was only after years of private research by Sielaff that the body was found in 2017 on the property of serial killer Kurt-Werner Wichmann near Lüneburg. Wichmann, who died by suicide in 1993, is very likely also the perpetrator of the Göhrde murders , which also took place in the summer of 1989 near Lüneburg.
