After the shocking bloody act last Saturday, in which a woman (39) was killed and a 31-year-old man died a short time later, the police in Graz were able to contact the suspect for the first time. The 28-year-old from Upper Austria was previously in a coma.
The man is suspected of stabbing his girlfriend with a kitchen knife in the Wetzelsdorf district of Graz. The man is said to have caused an accident while fleeing by car, in which a 31-year-old man died. The alleged perpetrator from Steyr suffered serious injuries in the collision and was in an artificial deep sleep for several days.
Well could Detectives from the National Criminal Investigation Department first contacted the suspect on Wednesday afternoon. The 28-year-old, who is still in hospital, was oriented by time and place and took note of his arrest.
He declined to discuss the motive and other details of the crime. He is suspected of double murder and has since been handed over to the prison officer. Incidentally, according to the statistics of the autonomous women’s shelters in Austria, the act of violence is the ninth suspected femicide of the year, committed by (former) partners, relatives or by people close to the victim.
