Hostage taking in Rammingen: Ex-partner brutally abused and sexually abused

A shocking case of violence and abuse shakes the Alb-Donau district! A 54-year-old man is standing before the Ulm district court because he is said to have taken his ex-partner hostage in a fit of anger and desperation. The defendant, who could not accept the separation, threatened the 47-year-old with a pistol, tied her up with cable ties and drugged her with sleeping pills before sexually abusing her. A nightmare that began that night in April!

The details of the crime are shocking. During the first day of the trial, the woman's testimony was kept private because the memories of the terrible events were too distressing for her. After three hours, she left the courtroom full of tears, and the shock of those present was palpable. Prosecutor Nadine Schmelzer described that the defendant punished his ex-partner out of anger over the separation. He forced her to swallow cannabis oil and threatened to inject her with a dangerous liquid using a syringe.

Dramatic twist on the night of the crime

The night ended in a nightmare for the woman. After being sedated, she woke up the next day with no clothes on and immediately called emergency services. Police found a variety of drugs in the defendant's apartment, including cocaine and amphetamines. A toxicologist confirmed that the overdose of sleeping pills led to a dangerous condition that affected the woman's memory of the night.

The defendant, who is currently in custody, remains silent about the allegations. If convicted, he faces at least five years in prison for hostage-taking and sexual assault. The trial continues next Wednesday and eight more witnesses have been called. The public remains curious about further developments in this shocking case!
