In the process of fatal bumps on a Nuremberg S-Bahn track, several years in prison were imposed. The juvenile chamber at the Nuremberg-Fürth Regional Court assessed the actions of the two 17-year-old defendants as bodily harm and resulted in death. One of the teenagers has to go to prison for three and a half years, the second three years and three months.
The judges saw it as proven that the two young men pushed three young people of about the same age into the track bed during a dispute on the S-Bahn platform in January. Two of them were hit by a passing train and fatally injured.
The prosecutor's office had requested four years and five months for one defendant and three years and nine months for the other. The defense pleaded for suspended sentences. The co-lawsuit on behalf of the parents of the victims, on the other hand, saw an intention to kill the defendants and demanded longer prison terms for manslaughter.
The trial was closed to the public because of the juvenile age of the accused. The judgments are not yet final.
