The death of a 59-year-old amateur ammunition diver haunted the Carinthian judiciary for an entire year. In pictures: the diver’s 44-year-old friend. The German was in court on Monday morning.
“Did you know what you are doing?”, Judge Christian Liebhauser-Karl wanted to know from the suspect on Monday morning. Because the two men came to Carinthia especially to dive for war relics in the Ossiacher See. A deadly undertaking, as it turned out later. One of the two Germans was killed.

The two divers fished war relics from the lake with magnets. “You already know that this is prohibited in Austria,” says Liebhauser Karl towards the suspect. When the two amateur divers retrieved grenades and the like from the lake, the 59-year-old tried to melt the explosive from a grenade with a hair dryer. An expert officer discovers a very dangerous undertaking.
Violation of the gun law and Nazi tattoos
The court was unable to prove that the defendant was partly to blame for the death of his friend, but that he was in possession of numerous weapons of war. From machine gun magazines to hand grenades.
In addition, the former fireworker has been prosecuted for violating the prohibition law. Because the 44-year-old wears tattoos with National Socialist slogans on his body. The case is closed.
mild judgment
The 44-year-old was fined 2,800 euros for possessing war relics. The verdict is not final.
