Dresden knife attacker sent to psychiatric ward
In Dresden, a 32-year-old man fatally wounds a 40-year-old man with a knife on a streetcar. However, the public prosecutor's office assumes that the man was not guilty at the time of the crime. It is requesting that he be placed in a psychiatric ward.
Almost five months after a fatal knife attack in a Dresden streetcar, the public prosecutor's office has applied for precautionary proceedings and for the suspect to be placed in a psychiatric ward. The public prosecutor's office assumes that the now 33-year-old suffers from a severe mental illness and was incapable of culpability at the time of the crime, according to the judicial authorities in the Saxon state capital.
He is said to have stabbed a 40-year-old man in a streetcar in the middle of the day in July. The man died shortly afterwards in hospital. The public prosecutor's office applied to the Dresden district court for the man to be placed in a psychiatric hospital on suspicion of murder.
After spending two months in custody on remand, the accused has been in a psychiatric hospital since the beginning of September on the basis of a placement order.
