Judgments against the rammingbock gang: burglaries and ATM boards

In a significant process in Wiener Neustadt, hard judgments were imposed on Wednesday against the so -called "rammingbock gang". The prisoners were in court for a number of burglaries and explosions and were sentenced to several years of prison. The deeds around jewelry shops in the Shopping City Süd and in the Danube Center in Vienna weigh particularly hard

The two main suspects who come from the Netherlands receive prison terms of four and nine years. In addition, two other men were convicted, with one 20 months and the other 30 months in prison. The aggression of the accused men shows itself in the accused acts, in which they used cars as a weapon for their burglaries and then set them on fire. In addition, they are also responsible for an ATMATIONS planned for an explosive technically planned attack.

The course of the process

The negotiation had a bumpy start because a witness who was important in the event said that he was put under pressure. As a result, his statement had to be made in the absence of the accused. Among the four men, each of them is assigned to a different role within this criminal group. One of them helped organize the flight by making a escape car available while another had the apartment ready for the group.

The провокативе tactics of the accused and their coordinated attacks became clear during the procedure. While two of the main suspects could be acquitted from the indictment points in relation to the jewelry transactions, they encouraged them to have been involved in the. This admission ultimately led to the arrest of three of the four men after the explosion, which took place on October 6 of the previous year.

Another defendant admitted to court that he made his apartment available out of lack of money. His punishment was set to 30 months in prison, which was 20 months. The judgments have not yet been final, which means that the accused may still be able to appeal.
