There is a drastic turn in the case of an attempted rape last week in Poysdorf in the Weinviertel (district Mistelbach). The 22-year-old Afghan asylum seeker, who was released by the arresting and investigating judge of the Korneuburg Regional Court only a few hours after his arrest, is now the prime suspect.

A DNA match convicted the man. The 55-year-old victim’s clothes were found to contain the Afghan’s sperm. The criminal investigation department is now searching for the suspect who has gone into hiding and against whom an arrest warrant has been issued. He disappeared immediately after his release. Since then, there has been no trace of him. “In order not to jeopardize the success of the search, the spokesman for the Korneuburg public prosecutor’s office, Friedrich Köhl, does not want to comment on the facts at this time.
