Suspect in custody after brutal rape in Möllersdorf!
In a shocking incident over the weekend, a 76-year-old pensioner in the Baden district, more precisely in Möllersdorf, became the victim of a crime. According to that exxpress.at Authorities reported that the woman was dragged into a car in broad daylight by two men, a 21-year-old Bosnian citizen and a 29-year-old Croatian, and abused her. The two men were then immediately arrested and have been in custody at the Wiener Neustadt prison ever since.
An alert witness alerted the police after observing the incident. The arrest of the suspects was confirmed on Monday by the police and the Wiener Neustadt public prosecutor's office, while the State Criminal Police Office took over the investigation. According to information from Niederoesterreich.at The two men may have been under the influence of alcohol and drugs when they approached the pensioner in Traiskirchen, which further complicates the circumstances of the crime. The regional court in Wiener Neustadt decided on Monday afternoon to order pre-trial detention, citing the dangers of a repeat offense and possible influence on witnesses.
Investigations underway
The seriousness of the crime has led to intensive investigations being launched to clarify all the details and background of the incident. The authorities are keen to maintain a sense of security in the region and are asking the population to increase their vigilance. The investigation could also potentially provide information about the motivation of the perpetrators and whether they have committed similar crimes in the past.
