“Correctly traded” – Causa Pilnacek: Insight in the Secret Report

The public lawyer Elisabeth Schwetz nominated by FPö checks the police work around the death of the former head of the Ministry of Justice, Christian Pilnacek. Reason: Critical Media reporting as well as the book of the former member of the National Council and recovery Peter Pilz (“The death of the head of the section”). Schwetzz sent the Ministry of the Interior of Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) an extensive questionnaire for the cause.

Now there are the answers. The “Kroon” has the 22 -page report. Conclusion: the police therefore worked correctly. The report of the BMI to the public prosecutor is explained in detail. And several times it is referred to that there was no evidence of external errors and it was believed that it was a suicide.

Pilnacek’s body was found on October 20, 2023 in a side arm of the Danube near Krems. The criminal police station in the Lower Austria started investigating. Foreign error was officially excluded – it was a suicide. In the autopsy report, however, there is no suicide, nor about clear external negligence.

Moreover, the police did not determine properly. In addition, criminal police officers had tried to prevent forensic medicine. This gave the emergency doctor who was called to the body at the WKSTA. These allegations are strictly rejected by the authorities.

Highest criminal police officer called for “full lighting”
The BMI delivers a chronology including service numbers from the officials – starting with the ghost tour of the drunk pilnacek on the A5:

• 0.72 mg/l (1.44 per thousand) at 10:23 am on October 19, 2023. At 11:41 pm Pilnacek is picked up by Anna P. in Tulln.
• You go to Rosatz, where P. (incidentally employee of the ex-national councilor Wolfgang Sobotka), who lives in a house with Pilnacek’s girlfriend Karin W .. After midnight, the top law leaves the house and leaves his personal objects.
• At 7.50 am the body is discovered by an excavator. At 9:30 am the community doctor determines death. The voluntary fire brigade has the body.
• LPD officials are on site. According to the report, they would have stimulated an autopsy after the doctor had rewarded the responsible public prosecutor.
• Because it is a person of public life, the “body and life” department is put into use. Andreas Holzer, head of the Federal Criminal Police Office, calls for a “full course”.
• Near the “access point” in the shallow side arm of the Danube, there are prints that match the shoes of Pilnacek. Otherwise no other. A cigarette box (“camel”) is found, but no stub.
• The wounds of Pilnacek have also been documented. On the head (“dead spots”), especially on the legs: with quite a certainty it is not about signs of grinding. In general no signs of violent or arguments. “No questionable circumstances”. Protection of evidence exemplary. Personal items were voluntarily given by De Kreupele by W. and P.

“Sebastian Kurz was not informed”
Sebastian Kurz is also mentioned. On October 20, 2023, the former KanSelier reported during his own trial statements about a conversation in the evening before. He speaks that Pilnacek was driven into suicide. How did he want to know that quickly? According to the BMI report, it says: “Sebastian Kurz has not been informed.”

Interesting the latest SMS that Pilnacek has sent according to the report. And to a friend who reported to the authorities. At 11:24 PM “Traffic arrangement”. At 11:44 pm “I am ready and can no longer, the very best”.

Regardless of this there are reviews of forensic doctors who question the official statements of the circumstances of death.

The WKSTA investigates office abuse against police officers. And the FPö Will-As-Baas Herbert Kickl has recently announced that it would contain a U-Committee on Causa Pilnacek and Black Networks in the Ministry of the Interior.

Pilnacek had a secret admission a few months before his death meant that ÖVP politicians (in vain) had tried to influence the procedures. The surveys for parliamentary transactions must start in September.
