- Weapon of crime: trial for manslaughter begins
Before the Landau Regional Court, a trial for manslaughter begins on Wednesday (2:00 PM) against a 28-year-old defendant. The man is accused of obtaining a revolver for unknown reasons and firing several shots at a 37-year-old in Ranschbach (Southern Wine Route) in February. The victim died. According to the investigation, the defendant, who is of Syrian origin, encountered the man as he was going to his car. Several continuation dates are scheduled until the end of October.
During the investigation, it was discovered that the revolver used in the shooting was a weapon of crime with an unregistered serial number. Despite his claims of self-defense, the defendant's actions with the weapon of crime were deemed unnecessary and reckless.
