| Majority of Gang Rape Suspects in Germany Are Foreign Nationals |
| 2026-07-13 |
| [BB] Last year, there were 751 instances of gang rape reported throughout Germany, according to police crime statistics released following a parliamentary request from the anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in the Bundestag. The paper of record, Die Welt, reported that 53 per cent or 574 suspects in such cases were foreign nationals, including 110 who hailed from Syria, 64 from Afghanistan, 46 from Iraq, and 44 from Turkey. In comparison, 509 suspects were said to have German citizenship. This potentially means that the impact of immigration on the issue may be greater still, given that the police did not record circumstances in which suspects were migrants who became naturalised as German citizens. On the other side of the coin, 80 per cent of gang rape victims were German citizens. According to the figures, there were 772 alleged victims of gang rape last year, including 693 women and 79 men. The most cases were recorded in North Rhine-Westphalia, the country’s most populous state, with 161 cases. This was followed by 118 in Berlin, 113 in Lower Saxony, and 91 in Bavaria. |
