Shocking investigation: two -month baby with serious injuries!

In a shattering case of possible child abuse, the focus is on a two -month -old infant who was admitted to the State Clinic Wiener Neustadt due to serious head injuries. The boy, which suffers from the suspicion of a severe shaking trauma, was brought to the clinic "at the end of the previous week", as Erich Habitzl, spokesman for the public prosecutor, explained. The doctors quickly realized that the symptoms of the injuries indicate violence, which led to the reporting by the hospital, since such incidents are suspected of clear abuse. The child is currently being stabilized, but there is no danger to life, as the medical specialists provide.

Investigations run

The public prosecutor's office in Wiener Neustadt and the State Criminal Police Office in Lower Austria have taken over the investigation. An expert expert was commissioned to create an expert opinion on the baby's injuries in order to clarify the severity and the origin of the injuries. The expert opinion is intended to clarify how the injuries are in line with the parents' statements. Against the parents of the infant is investigated on suspicion of intentionally serious physical injury and continued violence. However, there is currently "no urgent suspicion of a concrete person," emphasized Habitzl as to the legal situation of the parents.
