The suspect who allegedly murdered three sex workers with a kitchen knife in the brothel in Vienna-Brigittenau is now also accused of attacking a doctor in a Viennese hospital.
When asked, his lawyer Philipp Springer said: “I don’t deny that.” The lawyer confirmed the hospital stay.
Taken to psychiatric hospital
Vienna Public Prosecutor’s Office spokeswoman Nina Bussek also confirmed the 27-year-old’s hospital stay. “We got the information today,” Bussek said. As a result, the man was taken to a psychiatric hospital because he refused the intake of food and fluids. He allegedly said they wanted to poison him.
The suspect appears to have ‘fundamentally known’
On Friday evening, the three women were stabbed by the attacker in an erotic studio. The urgent suspect, an Afghan asylum seeker, was arrested a short time later near the crime scene.
After the terrible bloody act, the suspect ‘in principle confessed’ during interrogation on Saturday afternoon. A possible motive and background to the devastating knife attack have yet to be established.
