The mother of the schoolgirl from Vienna’s Favoriten district who fell into the clutches of a brutal youth gang in 2023 has now written a harrowing book about her daughter’s ordeal. “Because finally,” the woman says, “the truth about Anna’s case must come to light.” Krone+ has a sneak peek at the contents.
