Fatal dispute in Bingen: judgment in the process of knife attack expected
in Mainz, the district court faces the decision of a explosive case that shook Bingen last year. A fatal attack that was carried out with a knife and a subsequent assault with a pitchfork shape the terrible details of this act of violence. On Wednesday, the judgment against a 32-year-old man is expected, who is on trial for manslaughter, attempted manslaughter and dangerous bodily harm.
The act that occurred in October 2023 cost a 26-year-old man's life. The accused, a Syrian, had previously been involved in a dispute. According to the indictment, the neighbor is said to have confronted the 32-year-old while driving home with two friends. This confrontation became the starting point of a dramatic conflict that escalated on a dirt road in Bingen-Büdesheim.
The course of the act of violence
The day on the day there was an argument, in the course of which the accused stabbed his neighbor with a knife and met him 17 times. The man succumbed to his injuries. Another participant who also tried to help was also injured, but was able to flee to a platform truck together with the driver.
The horror did not end there: the accused followed the two fleeing ends and attacked again in the courtyard. This time a pitchfork was used, which further escalated the situation. Another neighbor was able to overwhelm the attacker with difficulty and remove the knife. Such a measure of violence makes the population laugh and brings questions about dealing with each other.
The public prosecutor applied for a prison sentence of 13 years and four months for the accused. The defender, on the other hand, advocated a significantly milder punishment of eight years and four months. The lawyer argued that his client had acted due to fear of the neighbors and that it was more of a self -defense situation, which was demonstrated by the court.
The process that started in early June 2024 and entered a crucial phase on Wednesday also raises questions about violence prevention. At a time when social tensions increase, some ask the question of how such conflicts can be avoided in the future. The events in Bingen are more than just an isolated case; They also reflect broader social problems that are often ignored.
