Arrested at the airport
Sex offender (31) fled to Turkey
A 31-year-old wanted to escape his two-year prison sentence, but he didn't count on the Upper Austrian State Criminal Police Office. Because last Wednesday the handcuffs clicked for the sex offender on his return journey at Hörsching Airport.
A 31-year-old from the district of Grieskirchen was sentenced to two years' imprisonment for Section 202 of the Criminal Code (sexual assault) by the Linz Regional Court on September 12, 2023. In May 2024, the police issued a national alert for the arrest of the 31-year-old. The search for the wanted man was subsequently taken over by the Upper Austrian State Criminal Police Office.
Money has run out
After extensive investigations, it was established that the wanted man had fled to Turkey to escape a prison sentence of several years. On September 18 at 8.53 a.m., the 31-year-old was arrested on arrival at Linz-Hörsching Airport in close cooperation with the Federal Criminal Police Office.
He was trying to enter Austria undetected as he had obviously run out of money. The man was taken to Linz prison.
