An Iraqi migrant has admitted raping a 10-year-old boy at a swimming pool in Austria because he had not had sex in four months and it was a “sexual emergency”.

The 20-year-old man is accused of attacking the boy in a cubicle of the Theresienbad swimming pool in Vienna, telling police he had “followed his desires”.
The victim had to be hospitalised following injuries inflicted by the suspect, who worked as a taxi driver after arriving in Austria via the Balkans in September, and who has a wife and daughter back in Iraq.
After the attack, the suspect left the cubicle and went to enjoy himself by springing from the three-metre-high diving board while the victim alerted a lifeguard, Austrian newspaper the Kronen Zeitung reported.
An ambulance was called immediately and police arrested the man at the pool.
He told police during interrogation that he knew he had made “a huge mistake” and that he had left a “big scar on the boy”.
But he said he had “followed his desires,” adding: “I haven’t had sex for four months.”
The man explained that before coming to Austria he had been with a woman in Iraq who wasn’t his wife, who he said had been constantly ill since the birth of their daughter.
In Austria, he had “not withstood not having any sex because he had a marked surplus of sexual energy”, he said in interrogation.
The man said he knew that having sex with 10-year-old boys was “forbidden in any country of the world”, the Kronen Zeitung reported. The man is currently in custody.

The attack took place on December 2, but police said they did not release details to “protect the victim”.
But police have now officially announced the details of the crime after reports emerged on Facebook, with the Kronen Zeitung reporting the incident in December following unofficial confirmation.
But Thomas Keiblinger, spokesman for the state police in Vienna, denied any suggestion that details of the crime had been withheld from the public over concerns of fuelling anger among the Austrian population because the suspect was a newly-arrived refugee.
That the man was a migrant “played no role whatsoever”, he told the Kronen Zeitung.
In Austria there were 126 convictions for rape in 2014, 58.7 per cent of which were committed by Austrian nationals, while 34.9 per cent were committed by non-EU citizens, according to the country’s federal agency for statistics.
