ÖVP Interior Minister Gerhard Karner calls for full strictness of the law for the rioters on Halloween night in Linz. Knowing that withdrawing asylum status – of the 129 suspects, 35 are entitled to asylum and five are asylum seekers – will be difficult and that deportation, especially to Syria or Afghanistan, will be de facto impossible, authorities are considering other painful sanctions for the insurgents .
An investigation is currently underway into Article 274 of the Criminal Code: “Serious community violence.” Anyone who gathers with a large number of people to commit murder, manslaughter, bodily harm or serious damage to property can be sentenced to up to two years in prison. Anyone who stands out as a leader faces up to three years in prison.
