Further victims of an exhibitionist testified before the Olten-Gösgen SO district court on the second day of the trial. A 55-year-old former politician from Aargau is said to have shown himself naked to 35 teenage girls and women on the River Aare between Olten and Aarau.
She was not sure whether the defendant in the courtroom was the man who exposed himself in front of her in June 2020, said a victim on Tuesday, who was 15 years old at the time. A ski mask covered the perpetrator's face. "At first I thought he was trying to protect himself against coronavirus." When the man took off his swimming trunks, she ran away.
However, an older woman who met the naked man on a dog walk in 2018 was certain: "He didn't have a beard back then, but it's him". The man approached her again a year later. "He first asked for the time again. I had déjà vu all over again." When she picked up her phone to take a photo of him, he ran away, the woman said. She handed the court a photo showing the naked man from behind.
