A former BZÖ politician and entrepreneur states that he is the author of the recording: Christian Mattura. “I took Mr. Pilnacek in at the time,” he told the “Salzburger Nachrichten.” He had known the former justice section chief privately for a long time. “And when he started talking regarding the ÖVP that evening, I got carried away and pressed the button. I admit that.” Mattura cited Sebastian Kurz’s (ÖVP) statements in court as the reason for later passing it on to the media. The ex-chancellor used Pilnacek’s death there for his “bashing once morest the WKStA”.
The ÖVP accused Mattura of downplaying his “strong political component”. He was “not only a candidate, but also in a political function as district party chairman of the FPÖ splinter BZÖ and also several times a candidate for the National Council and the state parliament,” said ÖVP General Secretary Christian Stocker in a broadcast and once once more called for consequences for the “secret service Methods”. Stocker was also skeptical that, according to Mattura, former BZÖ politician Stefan Petzner had nothing to do with the audio recording.
