Published
Last year, a total of 230 cases of sexual offences were reported. According to the available information, these comprised 186 cases of sexual harassment, 15 cases of sexual assault and 29 rapes.
The figures show that the different forms of sexual violence occur with varying frequency. Sexual harassment was reported most often, followed by rape and sexual assault. Harassment is often less serious than an assault, but it is nevertheless a serious burden for those affected.
The figures refer to reported cases. It is possible that not all offences are reported to the police. Victims of sexual violence can contact the police, counselling centres or the Hilfetelefon Gewalt gegen Frauen (violence against women helpline).
Further details, such as the exact locations, the period covered by the data or the source of the figures, are not currently available.
