A 49-year-old man is said to have been given knockout drops and robbed in the district of Neunkirchen (Lower Austria).

A 22-year-old prostitute and a possible accomplice aged 47 were identified as suspects according to police reports on Friday, arrested and taken to the Wiener Neustadt prison. The duo did not confess. The total damage amounts to more than 10,000 euros.

Man Unconscious

According to the Lower Austria State Police Directorate, the 49-year-old had ordered a prostitute to his home via an internet platform on Tuesday. During the course of the evening, a companion of the woman also arrived, and alcohol was consumed together. It appears that the two suspects secretly mixed a sedative into the 49-year-old's drink.

The man lost consciousness. When he woke up in the morning, his bank card and cash were missing. A large amount of money was also transferred from the 49-year-old's account without authorization, and further withdrawals were recorded.

Arrests in Lower Austria

Following investigations by the Lower Austria State Criminal Police Office, the police arrested the 22-year-old Romanian woman and the 47-year-old Austrian citizen on Thursday in their apartment in Neunkirchen. In addition to evidence, part of the loot was also secured and handed over to the victim.
