Heraklion Court of Appeal sentenced Dutch hotel employee Cirino Schrijver in 10 years imprisonment for attempted murder of a Russian boy.
Cirino Schrijver was arrested and charged in May 2013 for the assault and attempted murder of a 12 year old child and transferred to a special detention facility where he received psychiatric treatment.
Schrijver 22, stabbed the victim Nikita, 20 times and left him for dead at the hotel car park after stealing his laptop and mobile phone. Nikita survived but is still unable to walk and is receiving treatment for his injuries.
Shortly after the attack Cirino’s mother claimed her son was autistic and needed special medication and supervision.
Cirino Schrijver had visited Crete with his family in May 2013 and he was offered a summer job at a hotel as a children’s entertainer, while his family returned to the Netherlands.
As he told to the Court, he wants to be transferred to a prison and not stay in the psychiatric clinic
