The men, who were former colleagues and senior-junior acquaintances, are believed to have rented a car to travel to the campsite. After the rental company detected no further movement of the vehicle, they reported it to the police.

There were no signs of external intrusion or criminal suspicion, and police stated that a note expressing distress over debt was found on the smartphone of one of the deceased.
