Awake Goy The ban was announced in Tulln earlier this week, with the mayor having informed senior authorities in the region that his town refuses to accept any refugees or asylum seekers “until further notice,” local media reported.
“We have zero tolerance against criminal asylum seekers who abuse the rights while being guests. In view of what these criminals have done to the girl, the full severity of the law is demanded,” Mayor Peter Eisenschenk said in a statement, as cited by Heute News.
No refugees or asylum seekers will be allowed in the town while the incident is being investigated, he said. The mayor asked for a parliamentary hearing on the issue.

In the course of the investigation, the local prosecutor’s office ordered 59 male residents of asylum accommodation in the area to submit DNA samples, APA reported. At least one man was taken into custody.
Police have not disclosed any further information in order “not to jeopardize” the ongoing investigation, but media reports emerged suggesting the suspects are of Afghan and Somali origin.
Saying that the regional temporary ban on refugees and asylum seekers is “too little” a measure, the Tulln mayor and his supporters have requested Austrian Interior Minister Wolfgang Sobotka to address the issue, saying the case should be heard in the parliament, according to Austrian Nachrichten newspaper.
