According to a report issued by The time in the picture In the course of the investigations into the Commerzialbank case, the Eisenstadt Prosecutor’s Office confiscated the cell phones of Governor Hans-Peter Dusközel (SPÖ) and FMA board member Helmut Etl.
The background is an announcement by Burgenland ÖVP after the Landtag Investigation Committee at Commercial Bank: On December 17, 2020, LH Hans Peter Doskozil (SPÖ) and the then-questioned CMA board member, Helmut Ettl, exceeded their blades. The point of contention was who called who in the last few hours from the bank.
On July 14, at 6:29 pm, Etel told him by phone that the bank was “not expected,” Duskuzil told the committee. Etel insisted that Duskozel called him at 6:30, and not the other way around.
ÖVP Burgenland Doskozil withdrew from the false statement and filed a statement of facts against the SPÖ Chair and Ettl. The Eisenstadt prosecutor’s office secured the governor’s mobile phone on Monday.

The telephone question was also dealt with in the judge’s procedural report: Walter Pilgrimer gave Duskuzil’s account more confidence because it was consistent with the “harmless” memory record of a senior official in the country. Ettl became acquainted with the control officer through a previous collaboration in Vienna and initially reached out to her to establish contact with Doskozil.
According to Pilgrimer’s statement, Etel was so pressured that day that he might have made a mistake.
