Austria: "Morality Police" in Action

Tuesday, February 24, 2026 20:09

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

A 26-year-old Afghan man found himself in a Vienna courtroom today, charged with threatening to kill a 16-year-old teenager for daring to speak to a 17-year-old Muslim woman in a training classroom. The female in question said that she did not feel harassed by the 16-year-old and that they were just having a normal conversation when the Afghan got involved.

Kinda reminds me of an old hit song from the 1950s.

“Morality police” in court

“The main thing is, you don’t speak to a Muslim woman!”- Trial

From Vienna Today

February 24, 2026, at 21:14

An Afghan (26) had to appear in Vienna court on Tuesday. The State Prosecutor’s Office accuses him of extreme coercion. The reason is reportedly due to an incident on November 14. In a training course, the man allegedly threatened a 16-year-old with death and “slaughter”.

“You don’t speak to a Muslim woman”

“Even if I die, it’s all the same to me. The main thing is you don’t speak to a Muslim woman”, he allegedly intimidated the 16-year-old. The teenager had given a compliment to a 17-year-old course participant. The accused admitted to asking the 16-year-old if he was Muslim. The latter answered that he was Serbian-Orthodox.

“No morality police”

He wanted to study in peace (and) found the statements to the female course participant to be “harassment, according to the defendant. He didn’t even know what a “morality police” was. He vehemently denied the accusation (and said) he only wanted to help the young woman. “You are bothering me and annoying this girl!” he reportedly said to calm the situation.

Afghan expelled from course

The 16-year-old and a 17-year-old friend confirmed the threats. “At first, I didn’t take it seriously,” said the 16-year-old. After the weekend, he reported the incident to the course leader. The Afghan was expelled from the training.

“I didn’t feel harassed.”

The young woman was also questioned. “I spoke with my classmates quite normally,” said the 17-year-old. The defense attorney spoke of a “blown-up story”. The judge saw it differently. The sentence for the Afghan: 4 months suspended sentence- not yet legally binding. The presumption of innocence applies.
