A 50-year-old Christian woman has been attacked at an asylum centre in Austria by an Afghan migrant, because he could hear her reading the Bible.


The 22-year-old man from Afghanistan took offence to the fact that the woman had been invited by Christian residents of the property to discuss the Bible.

When he found out what she was doing, he stormed into the kitchen where the woman was standing and tried to plunge the knife into her upper body.

Luckily her thick winter coat protected her from serious injury, but she did injure her ear when she fell backwards from the force of the man's violent blows.

The man accepted to the police he had overreacted but claimed he was suffering from 'personal problems'.

He was ordered remanded in custody and taken to Wels Prison in Upper Austria.
