A drug gang in Austria acted as the Mafia. The head of the organization, his right hand and three other young men are now in court in the Vienna Landl. They all take out long prisoners because of, among other things. A 31-year-old lawyer and ex-Lawyer candidate apologized as a witness was also part of the Mafia group.
Five young men are sitting on the dock in the regional court of Vienna – they do not give up the image of a very criminal drug mafia. But the appearance is deceptive: from April 2023 the 25 to 40-year-old drug trafficking worked on a large scale. “They acted very professionally,” explains the public prosecutor.
Coordinator, Secretary and Taxler
The criminal union was built into different levels; Almost like a company. Someone who was responsible for coordination and prices and one who took over the preparation and delivery. Even a taxler was there.
The 30-year-old was the “boss”
“There was even a kind of secretary,” the public prosecutor notes. It alleviated the lower levels with the “leadership position”. This was taken over by a 30-year-old Austrian with the nickname “Chefe”. His defender Franz Pechmann says in his name: “Yes, he built the network, that’s right.” The addictive, usually cannabis and cocaine, came from Moroccan. It’s about kilo -road drugs …
But that is not all: in the course of the evaluations of the mobile phone, frightening photos were found. Consistently beaten and tied behind his back with his hands, a young man lies on a couch in a hotel room. Scenes that are reminiscent of torture methods and that are now also a problem in the process. “Because he is said to have betrayed the defendants with the police,” said the public prosecutor. The victim was a member of a competing association who underlined after the attack.
Styrian lawyer as a drug dealer
In the middle of the Mafia structure: a styric lawyer. The former candidate for lawyers (31), who already worked as an independent artist at that time, would have improved his salary with glue stores. The office of the public prosecutor determined and negotiated in the regional court in Leoben in October 2024: The final judgment was partly related to prison for 14 months. The Styrian actually had to hold four. He was already, confirmed by the persecution.
Long prison for the head of Mafia Gang
The men in the Vienna Landl are not so light: the Austrian head of the organization has to go to prison for six years. His right hand, defended by lawyer Philipp Wolm, holds out for 30 months. The third in the ranking and the customer of Noah Mcelheney must serve in prison for three and a half years.
The lowest level of the organization is quite mild: an ongoing boy is sentenced to 30 months, five of them in custody. Because he was now looking for a right -wing work as a train visitor. “He really thought it was back to life,” said his lawyer Lukas Hrby. The Taxler of the drug gang lasts 24 months, four in prison, but the client of Johannes Fouch was already in custody. The judgments are not yet final.
The cause has not yet been done. “There are many more people,” says lawyer Philipp Wolm. Since October 2023, the research by the Vienna State Criminal Police Office, Center for the Oste and Styria Branch. In the meantime, 15 main suspects were investigated.
