AN alleged cannibal gay teacher is on trial for murdering and eating his lover, who was found with his manhood missing.

The trial against Stefan R. in the German capital of Berlin which started today heard that some parts were eaten and some parts were disposed of, and although many of these have since been recovered, the dead man's manhood is one of those parts that has not yet been found.

According to the investigation, the defendant met the victim through a dating portal and they later met in Stefan R.'s apartment in Pankow, which is the second-largest borough of Berlin, to have sex.

It is customary under German privacy laws not to reveal surnames in police investigations.

However, the fitter was unaware that Stefan R. had previously looked up keywords such as "Longpics" and "Fatten and slaughter people" on the darknet, that are online terms associated with cannibalism.

Excited about his date, Stefan Trogish took a cab and headed towards his the 41-year-old man's apartment where they reportedly had sex before the teacher made dinner out of him.

BODY PARTS DUMPED AROUND BERLIN

The court heard that R. cut up his lover in his apartment, and dumped the remains that he did not find tasty enough in various locations around the German capital.

Stefan Trogisch was reported missing by his flatmates on September 5, 2020, but the trail remained cold until parts of his body started to appear only two months later as walkers discovered a meatless leg bone in a park near the Schonerlinder Chaussee area in the city of Berlin on November 8.

As more body parts began to appear, the police found remains with flesh tissue in the Pankow borough that helped identify the victim, and led investigators towards the defendant.

COPS RAIDED APARTMENT

When police raided Stefan R.'s apartment in November 2020, investigators found 25 kilos of a cleaning agent called sodium hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda, that is also "suitable for dissolving human tissue".

In addition, relevant tools such as knives and saws as well as traces of blood were also discovered in the basement.

The 41-year-old teacher, who was active in gay forums, was arrested on November 18, 2020, and charged with murder on May 18, 2021.

During the trial on Tuesday Judge Matthias Schertz questioned the defendant who refused to make comments regarding the charges against him.

One of his defence attorneys Kristina Beulich said: "He will not get involved at this point."

The judge suspended the trial, which will continue on August 17, as a total of 25 negotiation days were planned before the verdict which is due on October 21.

Stefan R. is facing life imprisonment if convicted.
