Simone Lugner composed, accepts verdict

"For the court, the dangerous threat was not realized," which is why the defendant was acquitted, summarizes Lugner's lawyer Florian Höllwarth to Puls24. The court's verdict must be accepted, whether one likes it or not, he further states.

Simone Lugner emphasized that she finds the court's reasoning understandable and that the verdict is "okay" for her. Surveillance material on her property did not show the defendant, it was likely a "one-time thing."
