Fire disaster in Hohenmölsen: mentally ill residents ensures chaos

On Monday morning, an alarming incident in Hohenmölsen reported from Friedensstraße: a fire in an apartment building caused excitement. The fire brigade was quickly on site and was able to prevent worse things, but the amount of damage is considerable. The fire stove was identified as the apartment of a man who was in a psychological exception at the time of the incident. Fortunately, there were no injuries; Two other residents were able to leave the building independently and unharmed. Loud [sachsen-anhalt.de] (https://www.sachsen-anhalt.de/bs/pressemitteilungen/polizei?tx_tsarssinclude_pi1%5Baction%5D=singl e & tx_tsarssinclude_pi1%5BController%5D = base & tx_tsarssinclude_pi1%5bud%5d = 579454 & chash = a87974FBD3C89144A5C2D7BE) the property damage is estimated at at least 50,000 euros, which makes the man's apartment uninhabitable.

The incident raises questions, especially with regard to the psychological constitution of the perpetrator. In a similar context, the Federal Court of Justice dealt with the incapacity to guilt on a bipolar disorder on September 29, 2023. In another case, the accused found that their behavior was probably based on their illness. This could also play a role in the current case, especially since a psychological report will probably provide information about the man's guilty ability.

Investigations in the course

The forensic technology has already secured traces at the scene and the investigation on suspected arson is running. Arson is considered a crime in accordance with § 306 StGB and is considered serious property damage with elements of the hazardous danger. A significant aspect is that the perpetrator has to meet both objective and subjective facts in order to be held responsible. The Federal Court of Justice refers to the legal requirements that should be observed when examining the guilt, such as juracademy.de.

The legal situation regarding arson is clearly caught and provides prison terms between one and ten years, depending on the severity of the crime. The courts must therefore check carefully whether the perpetrator was able to understand the consequences of his actions at the time of crime, which in this case may not be the norm in the event of a mental illness.

In the same time, a traffic accident occurred in Naumburg, in which a 63-year-old collided by car by a 40-year-old while driving up on the main street.
