Bloody terror in Villach: 14-year-old victim of Islamist violence!

A day after a cruel knife attack in Villach, in which a 14-year-old student was killed and five other people injured, the Austrian police searched the suspect Syrian Ahmad G. In the apartment, the officials found indications of Islamistically motivated ideas, including IS flags, which feeds the worrying assessment that it is a targeted terrorist attack with connection to the terrorist organization "Islamic State", such as Exxpress.at reported. Witnesses reported that the perpetrator dated "Allahu Akbar" calls during his attacks, which indicates radical motivation. Interior Minister Gerhard Karner emphasized that the investigation into the radicalization of the perpetrator is continued with high pressure.

A total of six people, including four Austrians as well as an Iraqi and one Turk, were seriously injured. While the authorities go in search of possible pies, the state police director found that the perpetrator's radicalization was mainly via the Internet. The incident not only triggered a deep shock in the population, but also a wave of dismay about the brutal deed, as 5min.at . The Kurdish Community in Austria expressed its deep regret over the events and sentenced the violent act to the same time by expressing support for the victims and their relatives.

The investigation goes into all directions, and the police appealed to the citizens to report any indications of extremism. In the midst of these dramatic developments, the call for increased measures against extremists and closer control of social media is loud to counteract the spread of hatred and violence. The painful loss of young life not only triggered grief, but also a clear appeal for vigilance in society.
