Resignation before verdict

Carinthian SP politician tried as perpetrator of violence

The "16 days against violence against women and girls" campaign, which is also supported by politicians, runs until December 10. But what is the situation in the politicians' own ranks? In Carinthia, an SP member of parliament is confronted with serious allegations of domestic violence - confronted by the "Krone" newspaper, he draws the consequences.

It is not a particularly happy picture that politics and the judiciary present in this case. A young politician celebrated as a young hopeful - he was even considered as a candidate for deputy mayor of a prominent municipality - is in the dock as an alleged perpetrator of violence. The public is not welcome at this embarrassing trial.
