Threatening saleswoman with hand grenade, sentenced to 34 months in Kosovo prison in Switzerland

Because the cashier was so shocked that she could not open the money chest immediately, the thief had left the store without robbing, broadcasting albinfo.ch. Bern's Cantonal Police were able to identify the suspected author quickly.

Now he has been sentenced to 34 months in prison by the regional court in Bern, reports “Berner Zeitung”. Of these, he will suffer as effective prison only 12 months

Because Kosovo has been living in Switzerland for nearly 20 years, it is well integrated and has never been exposed to police for any violation, it will not be expelled from Switzerland. That assumes no further violations are expected from him.

However, the accused's statement that he had stopped the robbery because the saleswoman was fearing, the court deemed him a purely protective claim, conveys albinfo.ch. The court also did not trust his statement that he did not know the hand grenade was real. The procedure is not yet final and can continue.
