murder story

On the night of January 13, 2005, Rudolph Moshammer encountered Abdullah near Munich's main train station. Moshammer allegedly offered Abdullah €2,000 for sexual services. They returned to Moshammer's villa in Grünwald, where an argument ensued over payment. During the altercation, Abdullah strangled Moshammer with an electrical cord.

Moshammer's chauffeur discovered his body the following morning. Abdullah was arrested two days later after DNA evidence linked him to the crime scene. During his trial, Abdullah confessed to the murder, stating that he acted out of anger when Moshammer refused to pay. ​

On November 20, 2005, Abdullah was convicted of murder and robbery resulting in death and was sentenced to life imprisonment, with a minimum term of 15 years before eligibility for parole.
