Majority under investigation for Cologne sex attacks of 'migrant origin'



BERLIN: -- A record number of allegations of group assaults in Berlin, Hamburg and other German cities on New Year’s Eve has shocked the nation.

Of 19 people under investigation concerning sex attacks in Cologne that night, ten are asylum seekers and nine are believed to be in Germany illegally, according to an official report.

As the latest news broke, German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere warned against targeting specific groups of people.

“When asylum seekers are being insulted as ‘cattle’, when they or their refugee shelters are being set on fire, when politicians in charge in this country are being called Germany-abolishers or labelled as traitors, when the media is defamed as ‘lying press’ or when asylum seekers call women crossing the street whores – all this is absolutely unacceptable,” he said.

‘Serious mistakes’ made

The report found that, in Cologne in particular, police made “serious mistakes” in the way they informed the public of the violence and for not calling for back up support.

Chancellor Angela Merkel’s “open door” refugee policy has come under fire. Questions have been raised over whether the authorities were asked to keep quiet about the origins of the suspects.

The region’s interior minister insists he has told police to share all information with the public.

A joint federal and state working group has been put in place to tackle the issue of group assaults nationwide.

"As the latest news broke, German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere warned against targeting specific groups of people."

The usual mealy mouthed cack we have come to expect. Either target the guilty or don't, even if you are desperate for the guilty not to be who everyone else knows they are.

How can anyone take the German government's promises to get tough seriously when they continually come out with such cowardly statements?

Well pointed out "Jacky54"...good math.

"...and nine are believed to be in Germany illegally..."

Come on...Germany is a modern country with computers that can quickly be searched. They should know rather quickly if these 9 are in the country illegally or not. Why do they always hedge on these things?

They are too scared to unveil the real truth, which of course is known a full 100%.

Most people have enough sense not to open the door of their home to complete strangers...foreigners of suspicious origin...why in the world would you open your country up to such opportunities for abuse...Germany will never be safe for women or children again...IMHO

'... when asylum seekers call women crossing the street whores – ... this is absolutely unacceptable,” ...' That is. But presumably, rather than being summarily thrown out, their applications - presuming they have submitted them - are still under consideration?

You can thank MERKEL and her CLOWNS for this.

I would be suprised if she survives the next election.
