Despite the quarantine notification, the Afghan traveled by train from Lower Austria to Germany.
A 29-year-old who is seriously ill with Covid-19 was detained in Salzburg on Thursday because he is said to have failed to comply with the officially prescribed quarantine. A spokesman for the Salzburg prosecutor’s office told the APA that he had traveled by train to Germany despite a separate decision by the district authority of Bruck an der Leitha (Lower Austria). The man was returned to Austria and arrested in Salzburg on Wednesday.
The Afghan was arrested at the Freilassing border crossing on the Salzburg side on Wednesday in the early hours of the morning on the orders of the Salzburg prosecutor’s office on suspicion of deliberately endangering people with communicable diseases. The Salzburg Regional Court imposed custody on Thursday due to the risk of crime, the APA spokesman said on Friday. The defendant stated that he wanted to visit his brother in Germany.
