Sausage bread instead of caviar and grid instead of lush mountain panorama: René Benko’s daily life in the Josefstadt -prison in Vienna differs considerably from his previous Tyrolean Luxury Life.
Instead of hurrying parties and conspirators with financially strong business partners, René Benko would have spent the first night in a video monitored a few cells. As the “Kroon” has experienced, a standard procedure in such prominent cases.
Decision on guardianship still today
In the early afternoon it must be decided to impose the pre -trial detention. For this reason, Benko was also moved to Vienna because the responsible judge, as well as the public prosecutor- the authority- the economic and corruption officer of Justice was in the federal capital.
The Vienna Criminal Court has 48 hours on Thursday to decide on custody of the WKSTA. The 47-year-old Tyrolean is accused of cheating investors and damaged creditors that we have reported.
Benko is silent for allegations
In a first interrogation in Innsbruck, Benko did not want to comment on the allegations. But in this case, the old wisdom of prison in terms of refusal to say: “Say yes, stay there, say no, go home” Do not helping it is generally expected to be imposed on Benko.
The judiciary is currently not assumed by the judiciary. This is important because only the risk of escape, but no risk of acting and becoming dark with a down payment. If it remains for imprisonment for the current reasons, Benko would not have a prospect of escaping a possible amount of any prison sentence against living with the down payment of an amount. In principle, custody is initially imposed for a period of 14 days.
Mass manager: “Effects cannot be estimated”
The Innsbruck -Massa manager Andreas Grabenweer, employed by the continuous bankruptcy procedures against Benko as an entrepreneur, did not want to comment on the latest development. “From today’s perspective, the possible effects of the arrest cannot be estimated,” said Grabenwe. Recently a complaint from the mass manager was known to Benko’s mother as the first person in two private foundations – including the aforementioned Laura Private Foundation.
With the lawsuit, Graweger ultimately wanted to ensure that the founder rights were available for the bankruptcy or the mass manager. He assumed that Benko, the once billion dollars, always kept control over the two private foundations. An accusation that now, with regard to the Laura Private Foundation, has apparently led to the order of the arrest by the WKSTA. A first public hearing date in civil law Causa will take place next Thursday at the Regional Hof van Innsbruck.
