A MASSIVE manhunt is underway in Germany for a depraved dad who is said to have murdered his two-year-old daughter by slashing her throat.

Police found the butchered toddler when called out to a small apartment block in a Hamburg suburb last night.

The two-year-old is said to have suffered cuts in the neck area, according to local reports.

Footage from the scene show a body bag being wheeled out of a family home while forensic teams search the premises.

Media reports said cops "broke down" at the sight of the dead girl after she was found at around 9pm.

The mother of the child was discovered in shock and is receiving treatment at a city hospital.

A second child is believed to be safe and being looked after by authorities.

Police using tracker dogs have fanned out across the neighbourhood of Neiwiedenthal in the hunt for the girl’s killer, believed to be her father who is said to have fled the scene and is still on the run.

A murder squad formed in the early hours of Tuesday morning has been going door to door seeking information about the fugitive.

Police have so far given no clues as to what triggered the violence.

According to authorities, the family comes from Pakistan.

They did not provide any further details and the prosecution is said to have taken over the investigation.
