In September 2024 there was a serious incident in Graz, in which a 16-year-old Turk was attacked with a knife. This incident led to an intensive examination by the murder investigators of the State Criminal Police Office of Styria due to the severity of the injuries that the victim suffered

The brutal attack occurred on September 9, when several perpetrators started on the youngsters and inflicted considerable injuries to the back. Thanks to the thorough investigations, however, the officials were able to find the suspects in a surprisingly short time.

arrest of the suspects

As early as October 2024, the investigators managed to arrest a 16-year-old from the Graz area district. Shortly afterwards, in November, his accomplice was also identified and also arrested. This quick development in the investigation shows the efficiency of the police authorities in the region. The State Criminal Police Office worked closely with the operational group to combat street crime (EGS) to hold the perpetrators into account.

The investigation showed that the background of the crime may be connected to a failed addictive deal with which it was a small amount of cocaine. It is believed that the suspects had planned a "retaliation" against the victim, which explains the brutal approach. Despite their partial confessions, the two assumed that they would not have had any violation or killing.

Both suspects are now on the order of the Graz public prosecutor's office in the Jakomini youth institution, while the investigation continues to suspect the attempted murder. The case shows how seriously the authorities deal with violent crimes and how important the quick and determined reaction of the police is.

This incident caused excitement due to the dramatic course and the short period of time until the perpetrators arrested. The attribution of possible motifs on drug crime also speaks for the complexity of the situation in urban areas, where such incidents often come to the surface.

The search for the perpetrators was seen as a success that should give both the police and the community a feeling of security. A deeper insight into the incidents and their consequences can be reported in detailed reports such as
