Police have described how a teenager stabbed his uncle and left him to bleed to death on a doorstep and then calmly went back to sleep after the killing.
They said today (Mon) Sukhwinder, 15, had confessed to stabbing his uncle last Friday night in Vienna-Ottakring, saying he had been afraid of his uncle when he returned to his brother’s apartment at about midnight and pounded on the door.
The boy opened the door, stabbed 36-year-old Indian Kala Singh B. and went back to bed, they added, without awakening other family members.
Another resident of the building found the victim’s body at 6am on Saturday morning lying in the building’s staircase.
Police said Kala Singh B. had visited his brother’s family without an invitation at 9pm on Friday, whereupon his brother threw him out for his drunken, aggressive behaviour.
Police found a kitchen knife with the victim’s blood on it in a drawer when they searched the brother’s apartment.
Kala Singh B. had been banned from Austria after committing a crime.
The teenager, who is in detention in Vienna-Josefstadt, faces a murder charge.
