The 2018 crime statistics are out and there were 60 cases of (completed) homicide last year, in which 73 people were murdered. Together with attempted murder, there were ca. 200 cases.

That is about twice the number of 2014, which was a record-low year - but still below the 100+ murder cases of the 1980s.

Also, rape cases and knife attacks have reached a new high, with every 2nd rapist being a foreigner. Rapes have doubled, knife attacks tripled since 2008.

In total, the number of reported crimes have dropped below 500.000 cases for the first time since 1999 and the clearance rate has reached a new high.

Has the current Govt done something to increase sentences and deport more violent foreign offenders?

I know deportations are up, but that encompasses mostly rejected Asylum seekers.

Yes to both. They increased some sentences for violent and sexually motivated crimes (rapes, violence against children) and stepped up deportations in general (even though it is often quite difficult, because many countries are not taking back their people. So better not let them into Austria in the first place. Also, the government is trying to send back more imprisoned non-citizens to their home countries, so they can serve their time there instead of crowding our prisons (55% of prisoners in Austria are foreigners).

Lower Austria: A 85-year old man shot and killed his 80-year old wife, then killing himself - with the legally owned gun. The woman was very ill and in need of care recently and a farewell letter was found.

Iraqi arsonist sets fire to multiple gov't buildings in Austria

Quote
VIENNA, June 19 (Xinhua) -- An arsonist has set fire to several government buildings in the inner-city area of the Austrian city of Graz on Wednesday morning causing a large-scale police response, though no injuries have been reported as yet.

According to local media reports the perpetrator was a 45-year-old Iraqi, who attempted to set fire to the Graz city hall, a district authority building, a district court and a train station.

A professional 27-year old triathlete was hit by a car last week while cycling and was abducted to the home of a 33-year old with significant mental problems. She was stripped to a chair naked, but then got to leave the house after complimenting on her abductor's orchid collection:

A 31-year old Moroccan wanted to kill a 19-year old with a machete yesterday at a public square in Innsbruck:

https://diepresse.com/home/panorama/oesterreich/5671972/31Jaehriger-nach-MachetenAttacke-in-Innsbruck-festgenommen

https://www.tz.de/welt/mord-in-stuttgart-es-war-ein-samurai-schwert-so-kam-mann-zur-waffe-zr-12878197.html

The 19-year old was badly injured, but survived after emergency surgery.

The case is similar to the recent one in Germany, where a fake refugee (a Palestinian posing as a Syrian "refugee") killed a Kazakh with a sword on the street. He came as a fake refugee to Germany during the 2015 immigrant swamp only for the purpose to collect welfare money from the German state ...

What a murderous weekend ...

In Lower Austria, a 54-year old police officer was found dead at a camping site. He was there on vacation with his wife and the cause of death was "fatally hit by car". His wife is the main suspect and she's currently in a mental facility.

https://noe.orf.at/magazin/stories/3008892

And in Carinthia, a 9-month pregnant woman was found dead in her bathtub. The 31-year old woman has 3 small children (2 of which were in the apartment during the murder). A suspect was seen leaving the apartment.

There were 4 murders in the past week, 35 so far this year:

https://www.oe24.at/oesterreich/chronik/4-Morde-in-sieben-Tagen/394380137

In addition to the two cases I posted above, a football fan club leader was killed in Vienna by a 17-year old (nationality unknown so far).

And in Tyrol, a 20-year old Afghan refugee was killed and another Afghan injured by a group of 10 people in front of a fastfood restaurant. A 19-year old Austrian and a Russian citizen were arrested, but others from the group remain at large.

A 19 year old Afghan refugee has been found strangled to death at a kids playground here in Zell am See on Sunday.

Another 19 year old Afghan refugee was arrested yesterday in Salzburg City for the murder.

It was about drugs and one of them received a deportation letter not long ago.

The man turned himself in at the police today and told them it was a family/relationship-related act.

The perpetrator is a 25-year old local Austrian, who went to the home of his ex-girlfriend (19) at 4am in the morning.

Her father opened the door and told him to go home.

The 25-year old went home, took the (legally owned) firearm of his brother from a safe and went back. Once again the father of his ex-gf opened and he shot him dead.

Then he killed the mother and 25-year old brother of hix ex.

Then he went to the room of his ex, where she and her new boyfriend were sleeping and shot them dead as well.

Turns out the 5-time killer was an FPÖ member, posting "niggas" a few times on Facebook.

They expelled him today.

The man should be labeled a domestic terrorist IMO, because he terrorized a whole small community with his disgusting act of killing a whole family.

Just so you are aware, Tender, stabbing someone fatally means that he Stabbed him to death. That is not the case (as of yet) with the social worker, at least not according to the article.

The 2nd Austrian victim (one case worker, one farmer) of the Afghan has now also died in hospital.

A couple has been found dead last night at a hotel in St. Pölten, capital of Lower Austria.

https://www.krone.at/2030587

A 36-year old Austrian woman killed an Austrian man (50) with a handgun in the hotel bed, before killing herself.

She legally owned the firearm.

(There has been a very similar case in the Netherlands, also last night, where a dead couple was found in a cinema.)

The 2 cases are probably not related.

Until yesterday, 52 people have been murdered in Austria.

34 men and 18 women.

October was extremely brutal with 12 victims so far.

Last year in total, there were 71 victims.
