Its 2018 report &#8220;Crime in\u00a0the Context of\u00a0Immigration\u201d analysed statistics of\u00a0murders, homicides, assaults, robberies, and offences against\u00a0sexual self-determination and personal freedom. The research set out\u00a0to determine how many crimes involved &#8220;asylum seekers and refugees&#8221;, as\u00a0well as\u00a0people who are awaiting deportation or already have a residence permit.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Spike in\u00a0Murders and Brutal Attacks<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The research suggests that Germans are significantly more likely to\u00a0become victims of\u00a0a crime committed by\u00a0an immigrant than\u00a0vice versa. Last year, 102,000 victims of\u00a0serious crimes were assaulted by\u00a0migrants. This number has increased by\u00a0seven percent since\u00a02017.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The spike is more drastic when it comes to\u00a0murder and manslaughter involving foreign perpetrators and German victims. 230 Germans were killed, which is twice as\u00a0many as\u00a0in 2017. However, the outlet noted that the statistics service (PKS) of\u00a0the criminal police evaluates data only after\u00a0an investigation is over, so the 2018 stats include the victims of\u00a0the Islamist attack in\u00a0Berlin in\u00a0December 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sexual Assaults By Refugees on\u00a0the Rise\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The number of\u00a0Germans sexually assaulted by\u00a0asylum seekers and refugees also spiked to\u00a03,260. In total, almost half of\u00a0victims of\u00a0serious crimes by\u00a0foreign perpetrators (46,336 out\u00a0of 101,956) were Germans. This is 19 percent more than\u00a0in 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Data relating to\u00a0crimes against\u00a0asylum seekers or refugees allegedly assaulted by\u00a0a German suspect showed that 8,455 foreigners were victims (24 per cent more than\u00a0in 2017).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Xenophobia Is No Reason<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Notably, in\u00a02018, only 18% of\u00a0foreign victims were hurt or killed by\u00a0a German suspect. As the newspaper points out, the report suggests that people seeking asylum are mainly attacked by\u00a0those with\u00a0a similar background.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The refugee policy and \u201copen borders\u201d approach, in\u00a0particular, have prompted criticism against\u00a0Angela Merkel\u2019s <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/sputniknews.com\/europe\/201903211073422800-germany-migration-funding-cuts\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>government<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. European countries have been experiencing a severe migration crisis since\u00a02015 due to\u00a0an influx of\u00a0thousands of\u00a0migrants and refugees fleeing the Middle East and North Africa. Germany has accepted hundreds of\u00a0thousands of\u00a0migrants. However, over\u00a0the years, the number of\u00a0newcomers has dropped. According to\u00a0the police, there were 300,000 asylum seekers and 697,000 refugees in\u00a0Germany in\u00a0December 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sputniknews.com\/europe\/201904131074106887-germans-refugees-murders-crimes\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New German police statistics reveal something you are unlikely to hear much about in the mainstream media <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[58,97],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-186694","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Current_Affairs","category-european-migrant-crisis"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/186694","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=186694"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/186694\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":186696,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/186694\/revisions\/186696"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=186694"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=186694"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=186694"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
