An Australian (!) newspaper has a good report about anti-Muslim talk and attacks in Austria:

https://www.sbs.com.au/news/muslim-women-in-this-european-country-are-being-attacked-at-an-unprecedented-rate

=> Tender reporting about anti-Muslim crime ! What is happening ?!?

(the article is a bit alarmist though, because there are now ca. 850.000 Muslims living in Austria and the number of anti-Muslim hate crimes that were reported last year was around 500, up from around 200 before the mass-immigration of 2014-16. An increase for sure, but not a huge increase.)

In Vorarlberg, a 43-year old man has stabbed to death his 18-year old son and then killed himself also by stabbing. The mother and younger brother were not at the house during the murder, but in a shelter for abused women. So, probably there was a history of domestic abuse.

LOL:

Austrian prison escapee returns, fed up with life in the sun



Quote
A man who says he fled an Austrian prison over a decade ago has turned himself in to police in Salzburg, telling them he was fed up with living in Spain’s Canary Islands.

Police said the 64-year-old, carrying two suitcases, went to police at Salzburg’s railway station Saturday night and told them he was a fugitive prisoner who had just arrived from Munich Airport.

They said in a statement Monday that he told officers he had spent the past 10 ½ years on Tenerife, a popular vacation island, and wanted to return home because “Tenerife is not as nice as it used to be and he had lived there long enough.”

Police verified that he had fled a prison in eastern Austria. He was taken to a Salzburg jail.

A penitent thief turning himself over during the Easter. You guys should nail him to something to make it complete.

A 27-year old Austrian guy named David B. was stabbed to death in front of his 24-year old girlfriend at a park in Vorarlberg, probably by their Albanian dealer.

15 homicides in three months?!  How is this even newsworthy?  Turn on the TV anywhere in America; I’ll even let you filter out the deaths caused by our ocean of barely regulated guns if you like.

Austria doesn't have Negroes, you see.

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.

I played soccer in Berlin-Neukölln this afternoon, with a Nigerian man and a German woman among others. The Nigerian didn't rape the woman, but he won the match. Afterwards I had spinach cake in some hipster coffee shop and it did in fact taste a bit like spinach.

Just because he didn't do it this time doesn't mean he won't do it sometime later. He should probably be questioned by the authorities to figure out what is going on.

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.
