"Cracking Down" on Child Rape in Germany

Dortmund


An Afghan man (23) is being held in custody after he was charged with raping a 13-year-old girl in Dortmund. What really makes this case outrageous is that he had just been released under some sort of supervision while charged with raping an 11-year-old girl.

It can hardly be believed: The man (23), who  on Friday is alleged to have raped a 13-year-old, in Dortmund, apparently struck a month before!

On June 20, the Afghani allegedly raped an 11-year-old. "It was a similar incident," confirmed prosecutor Börge Klepping about the earlier incident in answering a question from BILD. He did not want to give details to protect the now 12-year-old victim.

Shortly after the crime, the man was arrested, but after only 12 days, on July 3, he was released from custody under reporting requirements. Reason: No risk of flight.

The prosecutor:  He had previously appeared in a drug offense but not in connection with sex crimes. He had a fixed residence, and so there was no flight risk."

On Friday, it is alleged that the Afghan, who has a temporary resident permit, lured a 13-year-old into a hallway and raped her. Because the girl gave a good description, her tormentor was arrested Saturday night.

Prosecutor Klepping: "He is in custody for serious sexual  abuse (rape)."
