“Procedure against Egisto Ott not completed”

“With today’s judgment, the proceedings against Egisto Ott have not been completed. The public prosecutor is still investigating Ott. For a final classification of the entire occurrences around Egisto Ott, we still have to be patient. Of course, the presumption of innocence also applies in these cases, ”comments on the National Council of the People’s Party, Andreas Hanger, the today’s media reports on the court trial against Hans-Jörg Jenewein, Egisto Ott and other people.

“It is gratifying, on the other hand, that the behavior of the former FPÖ National Councilor Hans-Jörg does not have the denewin. The guilty verdict of that wing once again shows that the FPÖ is unable to conduct the Ministry of the Interior. The further you keep the FPÖ from the interior department, the safer the population is in Austria. I wonder what the current judgments – both the acquittals and the convictions – would result in the event of an FPÖ interior minister. It is also questionable whether the trust of a friendly foreign intelligence services would have been shaken once again and whether this would have led to a further stop in cooperation with Austria, including all negative consequences for the safety of our country. Because the disclosure of sensitive information was not even contested by the accused, but only the legality of the transfer of this information, ”continues Hanger, who finally emphasizes:“ Today, once again: at Gerhard Karner, the inner department and the safety of Austria is in the best hands. ”
