Groundbreaking hearing Wednesday at the Federal Administrative Court in Vienna. One of the convicted murderers of 13-year-old Leonie is brought in from Stein Prison (Lower Austria). The girl died after being drugged and raped by three Afghans. Now one of the perpetrators is to be deported to Afghanistan. There has been no return to the Taliban for years. And even now there are crucial obstacles.
In 2021, after the Taliban Islamist terrorist regime came to power, deportations to Afghanistan were suspended. A recent ruling by the Constitutional Court and the ongoing election campaign of the National Council gave new impetus to the debate on returns to Afghanistan this summer. Interior Minister Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) is in talks with EU countries for a Europe-wide solution and has commissioned the Federal Office for Immigration and Asylum (BFA) to investigate the cases.
22-year-old sentenced to 19 years in prison
And in fact, there is now a sensational precedent that could point the way: a murderer of 13-year-old Leonie, who has been sentenced to 19 years in prison, will be deported to Afghanistan. The girl was first drugged and then raped by three men in a Vienna apartment in June 2021 – with fatal consequences.
