A 16-year-old girl stopped passersby on the street and told them what her stepfather was doing:
A 42-year-old man attacked his 41-year-old partner and their 14-year-old son with a knife, causing severe injuries to both victims. The tragedy was prevented by the 16-year-old daughter, who escaped unharmed and stopped passersby on the street, leading to the intervention of police. The attack occurred in a small village with only 460 residents, prompting a large police operation involving a rapid response unit. The perpetrator was found in a pool of blood after inflicting self-inflicted life-threatening wounds. According to preliminary findings, the motive was a family dispute, though further details will emerge after the victims and suspect are heard. This was the first time the family had been involved with law enforcement.
V sredo zjutraj je policija v Mariboru našla mrtvega 63-letnika in 62-letno žensko v zaklenjenem stanovanju na območju Tabora. Po pregledu kraja in zbiranju obvestil so ugotovili, da je 63-letnik z zakonito posedovanim strelnim orožjem ustrelil svojo nekdanjo partnerko, nato pa storil samomor. Dogodek je zasledil še več podrobnosti, ki kažejo na dolgotrajne sporov med pari zaradi njunega razhajanja. Motiv za dejanje je bil nesoglasja oziroma sporov, povezanih z njunim dolgotrajnim razhodom.
Dogodek je zgodil se v zgodnjih jutranjih urah, ko je moški z uporabo strelnega orožja ustrelil žensko, s katero je v preteklosti živel v zunajzakonski skupnosti, še vedno pa je z njo skupaj prebival. Po umoru je storil samomor. Policija je na kraj napotena po prijavi, da bi lahko prišlo do spora med nekdanjima partnerjema. Stanovanje je bilo zaklenjeno, zato so policisti vstopili z uporabo sile in našli obe trupli. Pri njej so posumili, da gre za nasilno smrt.
Policisti so obvestili dežurnega preiskovalnega sodnika Okrožnega sodišča v Mariboru in dežurno državno tožilko. Preiskovalni sodnik je ogled kraja dejanja prepustil policiji. Po ogledu in zbiranju obvestil so ugotovili, da je moški v zgodnjih jutranjih urah ustrelil žensko, po tem dejanju pa storil samomor. Za kaznivo dejanje umora je predpisana zaporna kazen najmanj 15 let, a zaradi smrti osumljenca, ki izključuje njegov pregon, bo na tožilstvo podano poročilo.
Policija je v zadnjih letih zaradi njunih nesoglasij glede bivanja že obveščena. "Na vse prijave smo se odzvali in jih obravnavali v skladu s pooblastili. Pogoji za izrek prepovedi približevanja niso bili podani, saj z ravnanjem enega ali drugega ni bilo ogroženo življenje, varnost ali svoboda enega ali drugega oškodovanca." Nazadnje so lani novembra obravnavali kršitev javnega reda in miru ter izdali plačilni nalog. Moški takrat ni kazal znakov, da bi orožje lahko zlorabil.
Nesoglasja med nekdanjima partnerjema so že večkrat privedla do dogodkov, o katerih je bila obveščena policija. Oba sta bila večkrat v vlogi prijavitelja in kršitelja, prijave so se nanašale na različne dogodke v zvezi z njunim skupnim bivanjem. Osumljeni bi moral konec meseca zapustiti stanovanje. V nobenem od prejšnjih obravnavanih primerov niso bili izpolnjeni pogoji za izrek prepovedi približevanja.
Na območju Policijske uprave Maribor je to letos prvo kaznivo dejanje umora oz. uboja, v enakem obdobju lanskega leta pa so prav tako obravnavali eno kaznivo dejanje umora, ko je storilec po dejanju prav tako storil samomor. Osumljenec je zakonito posedoval orožje, kar je bilo potrjeno z veljavno orožno listino. Policija ni pričakovala, da bo moški uporabil orožje v svoji lasti.
Vodja Sektorja kriminalistične policije na PU Maribor Stanko Vidovič je pojasnil, da je osrednji motiv za dejanje izhajal iz njunih nesoglasij oziroma sporov zaradi njunega dolgotrajnega razhajanja. Preiskava je pokazala, da je moški uporabljal orožje, ki je posedoval zakonito. V preteklih letih je policija obravnavala več prijav, povezanih z njunimi spori, pri čemer sta se oba pojavljala tako v vlogi prijavitelja kot tudi osumljenca različnih prekrškov oziroma incidentov.
Policija ni pričakovala, da bo moški uporabil orožje v svoji lasti, kar je bilo potrjeno z veljavno orožno listino. V zadnjem primeru, ki je bil obravnavan novembra lanskega leta, je bil izdan plačilni nalog zaradi kršitve javnega reda in miru. V tem primeru ni bilo izkazano, da bi bil moški nezanesljiv v smislu posesti orožja.
Za kaznivo dejanje umora je predpisana zaporna kazen najmanj 15 let, a zaradi smrti osumljenca, ki izključuje njegov pregon, bo na tožilstvo podano poročilo.
