It is a crime that is shocking: Mohammad A. (49) allegedly raped and seriously injured a 93-year-old neighbour in her flat in February. The elderly woman died two months later as a result. The trial began today, Friday, at the Zwickau Regional Court.
Mohammad A. (49) is facing charges including sexual assault resulting in death.
Pakistani national A., who has a criminal record, is accused of serious offences: On the evening of February 14 in Reichenbach, he allegedly went to his neighbour, who lived in the same house, and forced his way in. He announced to the senior citizen that he wanted to have sex with her.
When the victim denied this, he is said to have thrown the elderly woman against the walls several times and choked her.
Disgusting: During the fight, the perpetrator bit his victim in the breasts! According to the senior citizen, the rapist went into the living room in between and smoked a cigarette on the couch.
The altercation is said to have been violent: “Among other things, the injured party suffered a multi-fragment fracture of the socket of the left hip joint and a fracture of the anterior pelvic ring on the left”, according to the indictment.
At the end of the offence, he allegedly stole 200 euros from the flat. The accused is unskilled and lived on welfare benefits. Among other things, A. is accused of particularly serious sexual assault resulting in death.
As a result of her injuries, the pensioner fell ill with pneumonia and died on April 12. During the trial, police officers testified as witnesses and stated that a used fag was found under the coffee table.
The court, presided over by judge Torsten Sommer, now has the task of reconstructing the course of events. The accused is unwilling to comment on the allegations. The trial will continue on November 21.
