Rising Violent Crimes in Germany
Police statistics reveal that crimes like murder, manslaughter, and rape increased in Germany last year, with a rise in 'non-German' suspects. While overall crime numbers fell, violent crimes continue to rise. The distribution of crime is uneven, with Bavaria being the safest and Bremen and Berlin the least safe. Crime fell overall due to the legalization of cannabis. 'Non-German' suspects increased by 7.5%.
