While the Graz public prosecutor’s office is investigating a teacher after violent escapades during the Graz Cup derby, the person who incited the Sturm fans in Gruabn is also in the crosshairs of the justice system. His ‘hate speech’ incited the crowd.
The bitter aftermath of the derby night is still being intensively tackled by the Graz police and public prosecutor’s office. The Public Prosecution Service has now launched an investigation on suspicion of serious community violence against the teacher of a renowned Styrian school. He is said to have been involved in an armed robbery of a fan shop where young GAK players were selling fan items at the time.
But that was not all: the Public Prosecution Service has now also started an investigation against the ‘whipper from Gruabn’ on suspicion of serious community violence, spokesman Christian Kroschl confirmed. The inflammatory speech of the Sturm fan before the derby in the old stadium of Graz Graz and especially the words “All the hatred we feel, all the hatred we carry within us, all the hatred we express today” are a thorn in the side of the judiciary.
Interview in a few days
The man has now taken the initiative himself: “My client is cooperating and would certainly like to help clarify the matter, which is why he has reported it to the police. His interrogation will take place in a few days,” said his lawyer Raimund Hofmann.
