Court in Austria Begins Trial Against Crypto Robbery Gang
|
||
In the Austrian city of Wels, five men must answer in court for a robbery and theft amounting to approximately 210,000 euros in cryptocurrency.
|
||
The mastermind is reportedly a 21-year-old Upper Austrian who planned the robbery together with his father, who has a prior criminal record and will be tried separately.
|
||
The five men involved are charged with kidnapping, aggravated robbery, coercion, and extortion. Some defendants, who mostly confessed according to their lawyers, claimed they thought it was just a debt collection action.
|
||
One man had apparently invested a five-digit sum with the robbed crypto trader and lost it. He intended to collect this "debt," but the situation escalated into what he described as a "terrible dynamic."
|
||
During the robbery, the perpetrators pretended to be postal delivery workers to gain access to the apartment. They tied the trader with tape to a chair in a storage room and also tied up the trader’s partner and their baby in the bedroom.
|
||
The victims were threatened with knives for an hour and a half to reveal access codes to various online exchanges. The men stole cryptocurrency worth 210,000 euros, which one perpetrator managed to transfer, as well as jewelry, gold coins, electronic devices, and expensive designer clothing.

Wels: Turkish Bitcoin Trader Attacked by Chechen Thugs
|
||
|
||
The rise of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin is attracting more and more criminals. Recently, a trial was held in the Upper Austrian city of Wels against a five-member gang of robbers. There, two Austrian main perpetrators hired three Chechen thugs the previous year to jointly attack a Turkish Bitcoin trader. During the assault on the Bitcoin trader's apartment, his wife was dragged by her hair and abused, and threats were made to kidnap their nine-month-old baby.
|
||
|
||
Intimidated by the continued extortion and coercion, the Bitcoin trader revealed access codes to his Bitcoin wallets to the violent intruders, allowing them to withdraw approximately 210,000 euros in cryptocurrency.

Gericht in Österreich beginnt Verfahren gegen Krypto-Räuberbande
|
||
|
||
In Österreich müssen sich fünf Männer wegen des Diebstahls von umgerechnet 210.000 Euro an Kryptowährung vor Gericht verantworten.
|
||
|
||
In der österreichischen Stadt Wels müssen sich fünf Männer wegen eines Überfalls und Raubes von umgerechnet 210.000 Euro vor Gericht verantworten, meldete OÖNachrichten am 27. März.
|
||
|
||
Bei dem Drahtzieher soll es sich um einen 21-jährigen Oberösterreicher handeln, der den Überfall gemeinsam mit seinem bereits vorbestraften Vater geplant habe. Dieser werde aufgrund seiner kriminellen Vorgeschichte in einem gesonderten Verfahren verfolgt, schreibt die Nachrichtenseite.
|
||
|
||
Den an dem Überfall beteiligten fünf Männern wird erpresserische Entführung, schwerer Raub, schwere Nötigung und schwere Erpressung vorgeworfen. Einige der nach Aussagen ihrer Verteidiger im Wesentlichen geständigen Männer geben an, nur von einer Schuldeneintreibungsaktion ausgegangen zu sein.
|
||
|
||
Einer der Männer hatte offenbar vor dem Überfall bei dem beraubten Krypto-Trader einen fünfstelligen Betrag angelegt und verloren. Diese “Schulden” habe er eintreiben wollen, die Sache habe dann aber eine nach seinen Worten “furchtbare Eigendynamik” entwickelt.
|
||
|
||
Bei dem Überfall gaben sich die Täter als Paketzusteller aus, um sich Zugang zur Wohnung zu verschaffen. Den Trader fesselten sie in einem Abstellraum mit Klebeband an einen Stuhl und brachten dessen Lebensgefährtin mit ihrem ebenfalls anwesenden Baby in das Schlafzimmer, wo sie ebenfalls gefesselt wurde.
|
||
|
||
Während des eineinhalb Stunden dauernden Überfalls wurden die Opfer mit dem Messer bedroht, um die Zugangscodes zu diversen Online-Börsen zu bekommen. Neben Kryptowährung im Wert von 210.000 Euro, das einer der Täter transferieren konnte, erbeuteten die Männer auch Schmuck, Goldmünzen, Elektronikgeräte sowie teure Markenkleidung.
|
||
|
||
Zu Überfällen von Krypto-Dieben kommt es immer wieder. Bei einem Überfall im letzten Jahr war ein russischer Geschäftsmann als Geisel genommen worden, bis dieser sich an seinem Computer anmeldete und umgerechnet rund 81.000 Euro in Bitcoin an seine Angreifer überwies. Ein anderer russischer Investor war bei einem ähnlichen Krypto-Raub um umgerechnet 348.000 Euro bestohlen worden.
