Abuse Images: Former FPÖ Carinthia Official Convicted

A former Klagenfurt FPÖ official was sentenced a few weeks ago to a fine and six months of suspended imprisonment for possession of pictorial, sexually related depictions of minors. This was reported by mediapartizan.at on Friday. In February 2024, 120 video and image files were reportedly secured from the then-active official, which he had obtained from the internet over several years. He confessed to the allegations.

Angerer: "No Tolerance"

The FPÖ stated in a release that the individual had resigned from all functions since last year and is no longer a member of the FPÖ Carinthia. "At that time, he only informed the city party and his local group that proceedings were underway against him, but not for what reason." FPÖ leader Erwin Angerer says he only now learned of "the allegations raised in the media." "There is no tolerance for this - I am shocked and clearly and unequivocally distance myself from such acts."
