Suspected of attempted murder: mother tried to strangle son (5)

A 43-year-old woman in Carinthia, Austria, is suspected of attempting to suffocate her five-year-old son using a headrest cushion around mid-July. Markus Kitz, spokesperson for the Klagenfurt Public Prosecutor’s Office, confirmed the incident, citing reports from the Kleine Zeitung. The victim's partner intervened in time, and the accused is currently in pre-trial detention. Investigations revealed that the woman was deemed mentally capable of understanding her actions at the time of the alleged crime. She claims she intended to 'intimidate' rather than kill her child, according to Kitz. The investigation into the case remains ongoing.
