Sexual abuse
Trial in Wels: Child lured away from playing
A case of child abuse that probably frightens most parents will be heard next Tuesday at the regional court in Wels. A 33-year-old man is on trial for kidnapping, sexual assault and sexual abuse.
In September 2022, he allegedly observed an eight-year-old girl smoking on a bench in a playground and then approached her. In detail, he wanted her to help him look for a lost 50-euro bill.
During a 30-minute walk along the banks of the River Traun, he allegedly grabbed her so tightly by the wrist that she could not run away. When he then wanted to start performing sexual acts, the girl was able to flee.
Man recognized from photos
The eight-year-old ran into a passer-by and the suspect fled. Because he was caught committing serious damage to property in spring 2024, a link to the case was established using DNA matching. The girl was then shown photos of men and recognized the suspected perpetrator.
