Three Afghan asylum-seekers were killed in a Berlin apartment on New Year's Eve.
Initial inquiries showed the bodies of the two men and a woman had been stabbed and shot in the apartment in the southern Neukoelln district of the German capital.
Several children found at the scene were taken to hospital in shock.
The names of the victims were not known and police, who were alerted by neighbours, had no clues as to how or why the killings took place.
