3096 Days Of Hell: The Kidnapping And Confinement Of Natascha Kampusch

In March 1998, 10-year-old Natascha Kampusch was abducted on her way to school in Vienna, Austria. She would not be seen in public again for more than eight years.Held captive in a hidden basement by Wolfgang Přiklopil, Natascha endured unimaginable isolation and abuse. During her 3,096 days in captivity, she was cut off from the outside world, surviving in a small, windowless cell. Her eventual escape in August 2006 stunned the world and raised haunting questions about survival, trauma, and resilience.In this episode, we explore Natascha’s early life, the day of her abduction, the years of confinement, and the remarkable moment she finally broke free. We also discuss the investigation, Přiklopil’s actions, and Natascha’s own powerful reflections on her ordeal and recovery.This is a story not only of cruelty but also of extraordinary strength and survival against overwhelming odds.For HUNDREDS more cases (and to request your own!), visit icmap.co.uk now and sign up for free!Presented by Tom Norris & Ben CarterWritten by Ben CarterProduced by Dan J LambertEdited by Ben Bonsey Hosted on Acast.
