revelations in the courtroom

The two defendants shy the victim and forced it to get into their car. A folding knife of the two -fold was mentioned, which served as a further means of pressure. Arrived at the ATM in Gloggnitz, the first -time complaint monitored the withdrawal of 240 euros, which he brutally knew how to scare the victim.

But not only the attackers are on trial. The victim himself also had to answer because it initially tried to deny his debts, which made the situation even more complicated. During the negotiation, the initiator admitted that he had made a mistake and explained his angry actions: "I was so angry because I had lent him 640 euros and he was unavailable for a month." The two -person defendant also admitted to know why they drove to the bank, but denied that he had had a knife. The victim excused his behavior with shame about his financial problems that plunged the situation into chaos.

All three men have criminal records, which also exacerbates the consequences of this act of violence. The first -time complaint was sentenced to three years in prison for coercion and serious bodily harm, which are due to two years. The two -time defendant received a conditional penalty of 15 months, while the victim got away with a three -month -conditional prison sentence. The victim accepted the verdict while the other two accused appealed. The case takes a shocking look at the dark side of debt collection processes in today's society!
