Belt rackets in Horn: Life-threatening injuries in the event of an argument!

Belt rackets in Horn: Life-threatening injuries in the event of an argument!

In a scandalous incident in Horn, a 35-year-old Afghan citizen has been sentenced to an imprisonment of eight years for deliberate serious bodily harm. The man had hit several people on June 21, which led to life-threatening injuries from a 16-year-old who had to be transported to the University Hospital St. Pölten with a helicopter. After an emergency surgery, however, the teenager is out of life, as the NÖN reported.

The 35-year-old, who was already a criminal record, was violent in further incidents and defended himself against the judicial officers during an attitude negotiation. A psychiatric report found that it is accountable, but still has to be accommodated in a forensic-therapeutic center because he suffers from a combined personality disorder. According to Goethe.de , responsible politicians would like to be brought back to his home country in order to reduce the financial burdens for taxpayers.

The court saw the violence and the previous acts as particularly worrying. The incident shows a frightening facet of violence in public space, which could ultimately experience a harder attitude towards potential perpetrators. The defense of the accused had initially hoped for a mild punishment, but the severity of the injuries and the repeated acts of violence led to the strict judgment.
