Scandal in the Montforthaus: Ex-managing director under suspicion!

Feldkirch, Österreich - On August 14, 2025, new allegations against the former managing director of the Montforthaus in Feldkirch attracted public attention. An internal building test by the city of Feldkirch has uncovered abnormalities in the settlement of salaries and the use of company ownership. According to [VOL.AT] (https://www.vol.at/causa-montforthaus-bisher-Bisher-known-or-what-off-open, the test report has already been forwarded to the law enforcement authorities, whereby the focus is on a transfer of 10,000 euros, which the affected managing director is said to have paid off even without the approval of the supervisory board.

This payment was made shortly before the managing director, Markus Klebel, rejected a contract extension, which subsequently led to the resignation of four supervisory boards. Another arsoning problem affects a company bike that was not returned after Klebel's departure. The situation is tightened by the criticism of the Federal Audit Office, which denounced serious defects in the strategic planning and transparency of the Montforthaus.

ambiguities and legal steps

Some ambiguities continue to exist on the criminal assessment of the case. It remains uncertain whether the advertisement has already been received by the Feldkirch public prosecutor. The legal basis for the payment mentioned and the status of the uninhibited company bike is also unclear. The city's internal revision is investigating the entire period of Klebel's management, but the results are still pending. Markus Klebel has rejected the allegations and announced that it will take legal action. He emphasizes the presumption of innocence.

In a completely different context, Russian authorities recently partially restricted calls in the popular messaging apps Telegram and WhatsApp to strengthen their control over the Internet. AP News reports that this measure was justified with the combat of crime. The responsible regulatory authority, Roskomnadzor, has announced that the restrictions in particular affect audio calls.

control of digital communication

These initiatives follow a pattern of restrictive laws that have issued Russian authorities in the past. Websites and platforms that do not adhere to the guidelines are often blocked. In response to this, a new "national" messenger named Max from the social media company VK is being developed to replace WhatsApp. Max's pre -installation on new smartphones in Russia is prescribed by a new law. This layout could also influence the use of WhatsApp and Telegram if they correspond to the Russian laws.

Flourning digital communication is currently contrasting with the historical events in space. The Commander of Apollo 13 Mission, James A. Lovell Jr., died on the age of 97. The mission had become known in 1970 after an exploding rocket almost thwarted the return of the spaceship to Earth. Ny times recognizes Lovell as an outstanding guide in times of crisis.
