Neighboring attack: 51-year-old beats and injures two pensioners!
In a violent neighborhood dispute in Vienna-Donaustadt, two men were injured when a 51-year-old attacked his 69-year-old neighbors with punches and foot kicks. The incident escalated when another neighbor (59), who hurried to help, was injured with a pointed object on the face. After the brutal argument, the alleged perpetrator retired to his apartment and did not open the police. As the police reported in a broadcast, the Wega, a special task command, had to open the door to arrest the man. When arrested, the Austrian was uncredant and aggressive and received a provisional ban on weapons but also a complaint for assault and attempted serious assault. The 59-year-old was brought to the hospital injured, but was later released, while the police continued the investigation to clarify the exact circumstances, such as vienna.at reported.
Legal aspects of bodily harm
In another context, the Federal Court of Justice (BGH) in Germany dealt with the legal assessment of assault, which took place in the context of agreed brawls between rival groups. Despite the mutual consent of the parties, these were classified as illegal because they violated the "good customs". In particular, it is pointed out that agreed acts of violence, even if everyone involved, is a significant danger to body integrity and are therefore not justifiable, such as Juraexamen.info explained.
These legal assessments throw a light on the danger of such violent clashes, which can not only result in personal injuries, but also have serious legal consequences. The BGH made it clear that in cases where serious injuries occur, the victim's consent cannot be used as a justifying basis.
