That was quick! Shortly after the verdict against the brutal dog owner in Ansfelden became legally binding, it is already clear: the 45-year-old will not be behind bars for much longer. He will be able to breathe fresh air again at the end of March. However, the Linz prison court has imposed interesting conditions on the man.

On 29 January, a 45-year-old unemployed man with a criminal record was found guilty of drug trafficking, possession of weapons and cruelty to animals at Linz Provincial Court.
