A 22-year-old woman was dragged into the forest by her jealous boyfriend in Nenzing (Vorarlberg) in mid-May and then beaten. Trial at the regional court in Feldkirch.
The 21-year-old suspect admitted during the hearing on Tuesday that he has an aggression problem. His two relevant previous convictions are proof of this. This time, too, he must answer to the judge for coercion and bodily harm. The trigger for the crime is banal.
But from the beginning: On the evening of May 17, the suspect picked up his girlfriend by car in Liechtenstein. Because she does not like a song, she asks the suspect to turn off the radio. That is too much for the jealous man, who then drives the 22-year-old to Nenzing and drags her into the forest: “I’ll kill you if you don’t tell me what the song reminds you of!” young woman and kicks her in the back.
Reporting against violent criminals
When she tries to escape, he throws her back to the ground, sits on her chest and squeezes her throat. Finally, the tormentor lets go of his girlfriend. She then files a complaint against the violent perpetrator.
“I will tell you very honestly: when I read the interview with the victim, I thought it was the script of a bad movie,” prosecutor Sarah Nenning said of the suspect. He is begging the judge not to impose a prison sentence.
His fear of going to prison is well-founded, as two previous suspended sentences are at stake. That is why his lawyer is also standing up for his client: “My client’s mother has lung cancer and is dying. His father and brothers and sisters live in Turkey. The suspect is taking care of his mother.”
Anti-aggression training planned
Judge Sabrina Tagwercher shows mercy, the final verdict is: four months in prison with probation and a fine of 960 euros. Furthermore, she only revokes a previous conviction and therefore she also receives a fine of 1,740 euros. The probation period is extended to five years. The violent offender accepts the verdict and promises to follow an anti-aggression training.
