The ink of the verdict, which the accused had recently drafted for serious robbery, was hardly dry when the 17-year-old Turk was back in the dock at the Feldkirch regional court on Wednesday. This time he did not get away with conditional imprisonment, but was sentenced to one year in prison.
The incorrigible is handcuffed by prison guards at the Feldkirch detention center. The 17-year-old has been sitting there since his arrest in early October. This time, the teenager is accused of attacking victims in Dornbirn for no reason and of having injured them seriously with kicks and punches. He is also said to have threatened an 18-year-old witness that he would break all bones if he called the police.
“Well, what do you think of the allegations?”, Judge Dietmar Nussbaumer wants to know from the accused. In turn, he justifies his behavior by drinking because of a miscarriage of his girlfriend a day earlier. What the judge does not accept as a reason. “Look, alcohol is not a moderation, but a lack of character. Besides, what can the victims do for your friend’s miscarriage? “
The repeat offender knows that this time it’s down to the nitty-gritty for the accused. After all, the revocation of the conditional prison sentence of 20 months is in the room. Which is why the probation officer’s report contains exactly what the delinquent remorsefully explains to the judge. Namely, that he now understood his wrongdoing and even had an appointment for anti-aggression therapy at the end of October.
As was the case back then, the 17-year-old is now back to detention. Although the Council refrains from revoking the already imposed 20-month suspended prison sentence and extended the probationary period to five years. Judge Dietmar Nussbaumer now has one year in prison for the current acts.
