Pre-trial detention imposed – mother remains silent after knife attack on son (5)

Date:

After the horrific bloody crime in central Graz, in which a 42-year-old Slovak stabbed her five-year-old son with a 13-centimeter kitchen knife, severely injuring his forearms, the suspect remained adamantly silent. They were taken into custody.

Fortunately, thanks to the courageous intervention of a 21-year-old neighbor who found the boy in the apartment and the quick response of the police, the child was saved. The mother and her son, who were also injured in the hands and upper body, had to undergo surgery. Both should have passed the surgery well.

Defendant refuses to testify
According to the police, the 42-year-old, who is still in hospital, is currently exercising her right to refuse to testify, Hansjörg Bacher, spokesman for the Public Prosecution Service of Graz, reported the “Krone”. The suspect has since been taken into custody. Exactly when the woman can be transferred to prison depends on her state of health.

behavior has changed
The background and motive of the madness are therefore still unclear. It is only known that the woman’s behavior probably completely changed at one time. This was confirmed by the husband (26), who is also the father of the child. His statements arouse suspicion of mental illness. At the time of the crime, the Afghan was in Upper Austria.
