Witness Testifies About Youth Gang
“It’s unbelievable how they’re behaving in court”
A man is beaten and choked in Vösendorf Castle Park by a group of boys, some of whom are minors. The reason: He had told one of the youths that he should pee by the bush instead of against the castle wall. After the disturbing juvenile trial in Vienna, a witness loses her temper.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen A young teacher and mother of two can’t get the horrific scenes she and her companion witnessed in May at the Vösendorf Castle Park out of her head. She was taking a walk near the castle with an acquaintance that day when they noticed a boy across the way urinating against the wall. “You could just as easily do that behind the bush,” her companion then said to the teenager.
Twelve-Year-Old with a Knuckle Duster
The situation escalated rapidly. Suddenly, five boys—two of whom were minors—appeared and severely beat and choked the physical therapist “until his face turned blue.” Among other injuries, he suffered broken ribs. “The 12-year-old, who could not be charged, even had a knuckle duster with him,” the witness recalled after the court hearing, which left her stunned.
That’s because a good dozen friends of the accused Syrians and Slovaks—who looked like children—showed up and behaved with utter disrespect at the Vienna Regional Court. On the steps leading up to the court, a boy who looked about ten was sitting there smoking. Inside, one insolent remark followed another. “It’s unbelievable how they behaved. What’s happening in our society needs to be made public. They spoke to me and gestured to another witness to keep her mouth shut.” Even the security guards had to intervene.
According to her testimony, the woman had to be escorted out through a side exit by officers. The main defendant, a 15-year-old, was sentenced to three years in prison; the verdict is not yet final. A second juvenile offender also received an unconditional prison sentence, while a third got off with a one-year suspended sentence.
