Gion Flurin Caviezel (20 August 1936 – 1 November 2004)[1] was a Swiss bobsledder who competed in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Born in Samaden, son of Berta Amalia Graf and Jakob Caviezel,[2] a police officer,[3] Gion Caviezel studied as an engineer.[3]

Gion Caviezel had won the Swiss bobsled championships for three times.[3] He won a bronze medal in the two-man event at the 1970 FIBT World Championships in St. Moritz.[4]

Gion Cavieziel died in St. Moritz on 1 November 2004 after a short illness.[1] FIBT president Robert H. Storey mourned him.[5]

Incident

In 1967, Gion Caviezel was arrested after the discovery of the body of a 21-year-old Alsatian woman, Evelyne North, who was his girlfriend; the young woman was stabbed and shot near her home in Molsheim, Template:Cvt west of Strasbourg.[3] Caviezel's business card was found in the woman's house; the police released him soon after because there was no evidence against him.[6]
