1st LD Writethru: Duesseldorf investigators find sick-leave note of Germanwings' co-pilot, no suicide note

No suicide note was found in the Germanwings' co-pilot's home, but his sick-leave note prescribed by doctors for the unlucky day was found, Duesseldorf prosecutors announced on Friday.

Prosecutors have finished the search of the co-pilot's home last evening, and it has not led to discovery of a so-called farewell or remorse letter. Nor is there evidence of a political or religious background of the event, according to the written announcement.

But documents with medical contents were seized. In the documents, there are indications of an existing disease and appropriate medical treatment, the announcement said. Endit
