Richard Lugner's funeral took place in St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna - Heribert Kasper was among the first mourners. The long-time friend of Mörtel told the Austrian newspaper "Krone" about his emotional state and made serious accusations.
"I still can't believe it all," says Kasper. He first has to digest the pain and keeps asking himself: "Why?". It should never have happened like this, "Mister Ferrari" is certain. "The doctors let him go too soon. No matter what he signed. Simone is not to blame at all." Kasper is referring to the criticism directed at widow Simone Reiländer by one of Lugner's ex-wives.
"That is irresponsible"
Richard had certainly insisted on being able to return home as soon as possible during his hospital stay. But as a doctor, you should ignore that.
Heribert Kasper continued: "That's irresponsible. An almost 92-year-old needs to be looked after, cared for and monitored after heart surgery, a hip injury and water in his legs. He needs to take it easy." The Lugner friend also has a good relationship with Simone Reiländer - "Mausi" - and doesn't want her to suffer.
