The brutal attack on a father in Burgenland causes horror throughout Austria. The 42-year-old was in hospital alone on a ventilator. Now he is dead. The case raises many questions.
This terrible tragedy will leave you speechless! A family man goes with friends to a nightclub in the Mattersburg district – and does not come home to his wife and two daughters aged eight and ten.
“brain death”
As reported, the 42-year-old engineering graduate was brutally beaten – soon after came the shocking diagnosis of “brain death”.
No chance of survival
For the patient in Eisenstadt hospital, who was only kept alive with medical aids, and his family, there was no hope that Jürgen T. would wake up again.
funeral service at the end of the year
On Wednesday, the ventilator was switched off in the presence of the relatives. An autopsy has been ordered and will be performed in the coming days. The funeral will take place later this year.
investigations are underway
It remains unclear exactly how the shocking act of violence in Schattendorf came about. The investigations will take weeks, according to researchers. “The discotheque was full, every indication must be followed”, it is emphasized. More and more young people report to the police and tell about their memories of the terrible night.
Perpetrator unknown
The suspect, a Syrian (18), who has been staying in Austria with his family since the refugee crisis of 2015 and lives in the district of Neunkirchen (Lower Austria), has been taken into custody. The roofer and plumber’s apprentice – he is a martial artist and likes boxing – still does not show himself.
Not an isolated case
What is driving more and more young men to violence? Concerned parents ask themselves that question. Only recently a 16-year-old Syrian is said to have raped a girl (13) in Vienna-Leopoldstadt. Many young people are also shocked.
