Nightmare at Salzburg Central Station: Convention after Brutaler!

Nightmare at Salzburg Central Station: Convention after Brutaler!

horrific drama in Salzburg! A 17-year-old girl experiences the incredible after a harmless evening: on the way through the district at the main train station, she meets a 27-year-old Syrian asylum seeker with her friend. In a real horror act, he grabs her, drags it to the public toilet and commits the fact that Salzburg now keeps in suspense. A rape, as the public prosecutor emphasizes, "in a particularly humiliating way".

At the beginning of this week, the Syrian stands in front of the Salzburg Regional Court. The defense makes desperate attempts to disgrace the guilt by indicating the victims' alcohol and medication consumption. Nevertheless: he is guilty and sentenced to ten years in prison. However, the verdict remains in the suspension because the accused appeal has lodged.

The main train station - a focus of violence?

The Salzburg Central Station is more and more discredited! The South Tyrolean Platz, once a fate point, has now become the notorious crime hotspot of the city. Migrant scenes feel magically attracted, accompanied by drugs and alcohol, although drinking on the open spaces has actually been prohibited since 2018. Despite promised permanent, including civil police presence, the control seems incomplete. The Salzburg police keep figures on violence and drug offenses under closure, which further fueled public concerns.
