Elisabeth G. has been missing for 17 years. Now it was believed that it had found a culprit – her husband Heinrich. The accused husband of the architect, who disappeared in 2005, was in custody for a long time. There is now money for that.
He is said to have murdered their daughter’s wife and mother in an unknown manner and made her body disappear. But for the jury in Vienna, the murder indirect soup was too thin – they acquitted the man within a very short period of deliberation.
A year and a half in custody
Prosecutor Julia Kalmar has until Monday evening to consider challenging the verdict. If she doesn’t, the verdict is final – and Heinrich G. is entitled to compensation. Because he spent about a year and a half in custody.
Between 20 and 50 euros per day
His lawyer Thomas Reissmann says in the “Krone” interview that he “didn’t agree with the client”. The benefit is regulated in the 2005 Criminal Compensation Act, which has been updated from 2022. You will be awarded between 20 and 50 euros per day of “unjustified detention”. It takes into account the “appropriateness”, the duration of the detention and the personal circumstances and changes caused by the detention.
In this case it would be between 10,920 and 27,300 euros. Unless the Finanzprokuratur finds grounds for exclusion. Heinrich G. was released immediately
