The trained farmer is to serve eight months in prison because he drove Rita M. ** († 50) in Jonschwil SG to the wheel of his Seat Leon Cupra 2.0 in January 2018.

Before the final questioning, the question arose whether the farmer had ever apologized. Heiri F. does not find words of repentance to BLICK either. Instead, the man, whom the judge describes as a “dog miserable” driver, climbs back onto his forklift.

However, it is the norm to wait for a final judgment in court cases in order to be legally on the safe side. Heiri F. may even face an indefinite withdrawal of ID. He can then only drive a forklift truck on private property.
