Trial in Innsbruck – student (19) locked up girlfriend and beat her


Locked up for hours
It was a jealous on-off relationship with a lot of “stress and arguments,” said the defendant. If he wanted to sort things out, but she wanted to go, he locked her up: imprisonment! “How long did you lock her up there?” Asked the judge. “Not long at most overnight,” the student had to admit. The result was puzzled looks. According to the 19-year-old, not all of the victim’s allegations were true, but according to the judge, the Tyrolean admitted “the worst”: deprivation of liberty, shoving, slapping, holding on to the neck, pressing a pillow in the face.
