The monster trial against the Wörthersee gang is over: after a year there were five guilty verdicts and five acquittals – no credit to the Public Prosecution Service for economics and corruption. And not for a Carinthian bank, which played a questionable role according to new research results.
In her reasoning for the EXW verdicts – five acquittals, five sentences between 18 months conditional and five years unconditional, legally not binding – judge Claudia Bandion-Ortner repeated what it was actually about: “About a fraud that was planned from the start . Our main perpetrator, H., left school at the age of 17, set up a tea shop, went into business and built up debts. He wanted to get a lot of money without much effort.” And the Klagenfurt resident, now 27, temporarily succeeded with his invented crypto token. Benjamin H. himself stated at a weak moment in the process that he received around 47 million euros (!) from investors.
