Imprisonment for brutal attack on prostitutes
court
A 33-year-old suitor was sentenced to four years in prison on Tuesday for a visit to a brothel in Wals (Flachgau), during which he is said to have violently retrieved the money for love services. The verdict against the Romanians for aggravated robbery is not final.
The man is said to have spent the night with a prostitute on July 8, 2022 in the Walser “Laufhaus”. According to the indictment, he gave the woman a total of 4,000 euros for her services. When the woman wanted to leave, he is said to have demanded the money back and backed up the whole thing with a threat – by showing a kitchen knife.
Strikes with ax indicated
According to investigators, the sex worker wanted to snatch the knife out of his hand, and both suffered some cuts during the scuffle, it is said. After that, the suitor is said to have picked up an ax and suggested hitting the woman.
Out of fear, she took the 4,000 euros she had just earned out of her backpack and put them on the table. When she then tries to call the police, the man is said to have snatched her mobile phone and threatened her with the ax again.
In custody since July
The woman ran away, the suspect was later arrested and has been in custody ever since.
