Mayor Koza brutally attacked: community in shock and horror!

In Vösendorf there is horror: Mayor Hannes Koza (ÖVP) was brutally attacked on Tuesday evening when he walked through the castle park on his way home. An unknown person hit him in the face and made it clear to him in a shocking threat: "You don't survive tomorrow's meeting!" Koza immediately filed a complaint with the police and was treated for an examination in the hospital, where X -rays of his face were also made. "It's just sad. I really didn't think that it comes to that," said the mayor affected the "Kronen Zeitung". The police confirmed the attack.

family Koza demands de -escalation

His wife Daniela reacted dismayed to this incident and posted a photo of her husband with a blue eye on Facebook. She appealed to the population not to fuel the negative mood: "Each individual is called to de -escalate and not to further heat up the negative mood. Because something like that comes out with eternal rushing." Despite the harsh political arguments in which Koza has been stuck for a long time, the backing of his family continues to be unbroken. The tense situation in Vösendorf is reinforced by the planned increased police operation to the upcoming municipal council meeting.

Mayor Koza is considered a controversial figure in the community, especially after investigations into infidelity and abuse of office, which were discontinued in March. In May he won the early municipal elections with 48.9 percent and thus consolidated his position. This vulnerable situation and the continued opposition to him seem to have found her expression in the threat that Koza had to experience. The incident throws a bright light on the political atmosphere and the climate of the arguments, which is currently there in Vösendorf, as the "Kurier" reports.
