Iraqi migrant rapes boy at Vienna swimming pool: "I didn't want to hurt him, I was in crisis"

A migrant from Iraq has confessed to raping a 10-year-old boy at a public swimming pool in Vienna, claiming he "hadn't had sex for four months and was in crisis," reports the news agency Patria. 

As reported by the British Telegraph, the 20-year-old is accused of attacking the ten-year-old at a public pool. He told police he was following his urges. The unfortunate boy was hospitalized with serious injuries. The perpetrator worked as a taxi driver in Vienna and arrived in Austria via the so-called Balkan refugee route.

The attack, as reported by the Austrian Die Kronen Zeitung, took place in a pool cabin. After the rape, the perpetrator returned to enjoying the pool, while the boy informed the lifeguards.

After being arrested, the pedophile told police he was aware he had made a big mistake and hurt the boy, but he had a strong urge because he hadn't had sex for four months, reports Index.
