Austria’s Freedom Party (FPÖ) is demanding the immediate deportation of five migrant-background students following a shocking case of prolonged school violence at the HTL Vöcklabruck in Upper Austria.
The party says the brutal abuse of a 15-year-old boy over several months by five older classmates — all aged 20 and reportedly of Afghan, Turkish, and Albanian origin — represents “systematic abuse” and a failure of the state to protect its citizens, in particular minors in Austrian schools.
“What happened at an Upper Austrian school is not a triviality, but systematic abuse,” said FPÖ education spokesman Hermann Brückl. “This is pure violence.” He condemned the initial handling of the case by school staff, particularly the German teacher who reportedly assigned the perpetrators to write an essay on violence as punishment. “Instead of justice for the affected student, an essay was decreed,” Brückl added.
“If it turns out that the migrant perpetrators of violence do not have Austrian citizenship, they must be sent back to their country of origin,” he declared.
The party’s youth spokesman Maximilian Weinzierl added: “If 20-year-old men with belts attack a 15-year-old, push him out of the window, then they have forfeited any right to education in our country.” He said the incident is not isolated but a consequence of “unbounded integration romanticism,” and called for a “clear line against migrant violence.”
The case, first reported by the Kronen Zeitung, involves five migrant-background students who allegedly harassed, humiliated, beat, and even choked the 15-year-old for months, with some of the assaults filmed and circulated. In one particularly disturbing episode, the boy was pushed from a mezzanine window. He narrowly avoided serious injury but has since been placed on medical leave due to psychological trauma.
“Physically, he’s doing better,” an anonymous source told reporters. “But psychologically, he’s very weak. He won’t go back to school. He just can’t finish the year after what happened.”
The abuse, which reportedly lasted for more than half a year, came to light after an anonymous whistleblower alerted the media. A subsequent police investigation was launched, and the Upper Austrian Directorate of Education confirmed that all five suspects were suspended and have now been expelled.
Police have confirmed multiple individuals are under investigation for assault. Given the age of the victim and the seriousness of the allegations, officials have withheld further personal details. Teachers at the school have handed over video evidence of the assaults to investigators.
