Born in 2006, dark blond hair, petite. A Viennese “Bua” with a typical Austrian surname. But within three months he mutated into a radical Islamist. In his nursery.
Surrounded by police officers, the student entered room 301 at the Vienna Regional Court on Friday. Accused of terrorist organization. “I have no explanation for that. Within three months he radicalized himself in the nursery,” says his lawyer Werner Tomanek in the opening statement. The new attitude was soon noticeable at school: “In the beginning he had trouble looking female classmates and teachers in the eye,” said the prosecutor.
Knife in class, machete in your pocket
But he soon showed his classmates IS propaganda and videos of extremely brutal killings. The 17-year-old was out in town with a machete in his pocket. Even relevant mosques said his attitude was “unfortunate”.
On Nov. 21, the teen pulled out a butterfly knife at school. Now it was enough for the classmates, eight police officers arrived.
Expert testifies to “very high risk”
An expert confirmed that the teen had a schizoid personality disorder. If left untreated, there is a “very high risk from him”. There was no evidence of that in the courtroom. He pleaded guilty in a low voice. “It’s a phase of life, but it’s over,” says Tomanek. The verdict of the jury: two years’ imprisonment, with seven months mandatory.
