After several offences in the past months, the police have now succeeded in convicting the man, who comes from Syria, last Saturday, January 14. This was reported by the district police authority in Unna on Friday.
A farmer from the Kamen district of Methler caught the man in his cattle shed and held him until the police arrived, as police spokesperson Bernd Pentrop told wa.de. According to the spokesperson, the 28-year-old had brought a stool with him. The police arrested the accused and took him to the Kamen police station.
During later questioning, the accused stated that he had been sexually abusing several animals on farms in Kamen and the region since 2018. The interrogation did not reveal the exact locations where the animal abuser had been active. “There is a tendency that the incidents may also have taken place abroad,” said police spokesman Bernd Pentrup. According to the current state of the investigation, there are no indications that an animal was injured during the sexual acts.
People who have sexual intercourse with animals are also called sodomites. Criminal proceedings have been initiated against the man. The criminal investigation is continuing and the appropriate authorities have been informed to help the man, who is obviously mentally ill, the spokesperson for the authorities reported.
A few months ago, a horse was injured by cuts in the genital area in Drensteinfurt-Walstedde in the district of Warendorf.
