Huge riot in Vienna’s Stadionbad in mid-August: guests exercised vigilante justice against a 50-year-old after suspected abuse of a young boy (13). Two reports have now significantly exonerated the man; he is almost completely blind.
It was a frightening report that appeared in the media in mid-August: a 13-year-old boy was allegedly threatened with suicide by a 50-year-old man. In a shower in the swimming pool of the Vienna stadium, the suspect allegedly asked the youngster to perform sexual acts with himself and then with him.
Young victims in another outdoor pool
The case is reminiscent of shocking events in the outdoor swimming pool “Aqua Splash” in Traiskirchen (Lower Austria). There, in June, two Afghans groped a total of six young swimmers between the ages of nine and thirteen in the intimate parts of the underwater whirlpool pool. Before the court in Wiener Neustadt, the two defendants admitted the shocking abuses…
According to the report, the suspect was virtually blind
But although the two were not legally sentenced to 18 months’ partial prison time, there has now been a surprising twist in the 50-year-old alleged sex offender’s case: a report revealed that the suspect is completely blind in one eye and has only one eye. in the second fortieth of vision.
According to experts, with this restriction he would not have been able to tell whether the boy in the shower in the stadium swimming pool was younger than 14 years old. And the alleged rape is not very likely because of his client’s condition, attorney Daniel Strauss said. Especially because a DNA report also acquits the Viennese: no genetic material from the 13-year-old was found on the suspect.
Because there is no longer any urgent suspicion of a crime, the 50-year-old has now been released after a month and a half in pre-trial detention. The accusations of abuse at the stadium pool seem to disappear into thin air. In fact, Attorney Strauss expects the case to be dropped before a trial even takes place. However, the investigation is still ongoing.
It is also unclear whether the suspect from Viennese will become a victim in another case. After the alleged incident in the outdoor shower, a violent commotion broke out on the lawn. Several guests attacked the 50-year-old – he suffered seven broken ribs. But he has not yet filed a complaint, attorney Daniel Strauss said.
