Thanks for that. I've seen the updated "SUST" report.

It is no more a rumor. The prelim states:
Beim Absetzen von Fallschirmspringern kam es bei einem noch am Flug-
zeug befindlichen Fallschirmspringer zu einer ungewollten Öffnung des
Reserveschirms. Der Fallschirmspringer kollidierte in der Folge mit dem
Höhenleitwerk, wodurch dieses vollständig vom Flugzeug abgerissen
wurde, und das Flugzeug stürzte ab. Der Pilot trug keinen Rettungsfall-
schirm.
Which translates roughly into :
unwanted opening of emergency parachute of one of the parachutists whereupon that person collided with the elevator and broke it off. The pilot did not wear a parachute.
