It is a horrific case that the public should not know about.
Investigations by the newspaper BILD have uncovered it: In mid-January, a man armed with a knife allegedly got into the car of a complete stranger. He apparently wanted to rape her, but luckily failed because she resisted.
To this day – about two months later – the Munich police and the Munich I public prosecutor’s office are keeping quiet about the brutal crime.
BILD learned: Gokhan S. (25) allegedly got into the car of a young woman (24) in Ramersdorf on Thursday ( January 20). The drive went about eight kilometres to the vicinity of Leonrodplatz square, where S. lived. There he apparently wanted to rape his victim in the back seat. He is also said to have threatened her with violence.
The woman resisted and was able to flee naked onto Dachauer Street. Walkers noticed the shocked 24-year-old and alerted the police. More than ten patrols searched without success.
Anne Leiding, spokeswoman for the public prosecutor’s office, told BILD: “We are conducting a preliminary investigation into a sexual offence in which a suspect is already in custody.”
How could Gokhan S. be caught? According to BILD information, it is the same man who allegedly threatened a Mercedes employee (47) at the car dealership on the street Arnulfstraße only five days later.
S. threatened the 47-year-old with a butterfly knife and forced her to hand over the keys to a Mercedes G-Class car. Another employee noticed this and alerted the police. Officers were able to arrest the perpetrator as he was about to leave the car dealership premises.
The crime concerning the Mercedes was reported, but the attempted rape has not been reported to date. According to the public prosecutor’s office, Gokhan S. remains silent about the accusations.
