(Jewish Group) Crime rate in Germany at lowest level in 30 years, but antisemitism is on the rise

[Behind the Aegis]

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

The German crime rate has fallen by five per cent since last year, hitting its lowest rate since 1992.

The new government figures show that 5.76 million crimes were reported in 2017. As a percentage of the population, crime is now at its lowest level for 30 years.

Despite the significant overall fall in crime, the figures also revealed a rise in antisemitic attacks, which have gone up by 2.5 per cent with a total of 1,504 incidents in 2017. Mr Seehofer said this was partly attributable to “imported antisemitism”, referring to attacks carried out by foreigners, however, this portion was vastly outweighed by attacks on Jews by far-right German nationals, which accounted for 94 per cent of antisemitic attacks.

The report says that politically motivated crimes fell for the first time in four years, going down by 4.9 per cent and making up 0.7 per cent of all crimes.

However, within this category, the number of incidents motivated by right-wing ideology fell by 12.9 per cent while those connected to the left rose by 3.9 per cent.
