Youth gangs in sight: shocking allegations in Vienna!

The Vienna public prosecutor's office is investigating a group of young people between the ages of 14 and 17 due to severe allegations that include rape, extortion and arson. According to information from Krone , five of the seven accused are already in custody. The investigation runs in the context of a case in which a young woman has probably been raped and blackmailed several times. The public prosecutor has so far not commented on the background.

The alleged victim had mutually agreed sexual intercourse with one of the suspects that were taken by photos and videos. These recordings are then said to have been used to blackmail the woman so that she let the youngsters into her apartment. There they threatened violence, consumed drugs and are said to have forced the women to act further sexual acts. The investigation shows parallels to an earlier case that affected the so-called "Antongang", reports Puls24 .

Investigations and allegations

In addition to the allegations of rape, arson is also determined. It was announced this week that the woman's apartment was presumably set on fire while she was not at home. The police assume that these acts were committed by the same young people who have previously been associated with drug trafficking and violence. It is believed that the group has a high potential for violence, since several accused have appeared criminal in the past.

The investigating authorities have secured evidence during house searches, including mobile phones that are now evaluated. Although many suspects do not want to make any statements, a young person admitted that drug deals made and photographed the woman's ATM card. However, the further allegations that affect severe abuse and threats were contested. The case remains highly complex and the investigation has not yet been completed.
