VIENNA, Feb 19 (Reuters) – An Austrian court on Thursday found a 37-year-old amateur mountaineer guilty of manslaughter over his girlfriend’s death of cold near Austria’s highest summit after he left her to fetch help, Austrian media reported.
The court in the western city of Innsbruck handed the defendant a five-month suspended prison sentence for causing her death in January 2025 by gross negligence.
