Gernot Prinz, the mayor of the village of Ossiach in Carinthia, and his deputy Philipp Kamnig (both FPÖ) are charged with physical injuries. The police are investigating.
Imagine an idyllic place, with a famous pen on the shore of a lake, with a flair for visual arts and music. Now imagine a hearty ecclesiastical scuffle, almost part of a rural ritual, and mix the two. Until now, so irrelevant if the main characters hadn’t been there.
The fact is that there are allegations of bodily harm against the mayor of Ossiach, Gernot Prinz, and his deputy Philipp Kamnig. Police spokesman Rainer Dionisio confirms the names (“Privacy Policy!”), the ads themselves do not: “Investigations are ongoing, there were three participants and one injured.”
Prince and Kamnig confirm a lot
Prinz and Kamnig are partly themselves who confirm everything. Kamnig: “I have already received an appointment from the police for Friday for the interrogation.” However, he had to vehemently reject the bodily harm charge, Kamnig said. And prince? The mayor: “At this point I don’t want to say anything about this case and the allegations.”
At this point you should visualize more rumors. The victim, a young man close to the ÖVP, felt compelled to relieve himself. After all, beers have to get out again. It is also rumored that Prinz and Kamnig thought their FPÖ car was in the wrong place and wanted to tell the victim too loudly. “But I have three witnesses who confirm this brutality,” the slightly injured man swears.
New mayor and new alderman?
The future will tell what the police and the judiciary say. In the present, the presumption of innocence for all involved still needs to be emphasized. But if the presumption of innocence turns into a confirmation of guilt, the aforementioned idyllic spot should probably get a new mayor – including a new deputy.
