A 72-year-old man acted out his apparent proclivities in the outdoor swimming pool in Kufstein (Tyrol). The girls immediately raised the alarm. Now the German with a criminal record has to go to prison. The incident was not the only reason why he was in court ...

Two friends - both now eleven years old - experienced the repulsive incident in September last year: the accused was in the next cubicle taking a shower and first made himself known by knocking. Then he pressed his penis, clearly visible to the girls, against a separating pane of frosted glass.

There was soon no more talk of "fun"
The girls, who were questioned separately from the 72-year-old, described the situation in the same way. At first they had thought it was "fun", but this had completely passed them by during the unsavory encounter. One of the girls then ran to her mother and told her about the incident.

The girls were very credible in their statements.

Die Staatsanwältin

The accused German denied the allegations: "I showered several times that day, but that was it."

Also charged with passing on "child porn"
He had already served three years in prison for passing on depictions of abuse of minors, and said of the now charged passing on of such a film: "I thought the female person was older than 18." Seven months' imprisonment was handed down - not legally binding.
