‘Women must be able to travel safely in Germany’ – German trains turning into no-go zones as violence and sex crimes soar

There are now approximately 90 violent crimes per day in German trains and train stations

In the first three months of this year, the number of violent incidents, including sexual assaults, at German train stations has once again risen sharply compared to the previous year, according to data from the Federal Police.

The crime statistics show that there were approximately 8,100 violent crimes in just three months, and in March 2024 alone, there were 2,800 violent crimes, representing a shocking 19.7 percent rise compared to March 2023. In total, there are 90 crimes per day on the German train network.

In particular, in March, serious sexual crimes exploded to 213, a 37 percent increase over March 2023.

The situation is deteriorating so quickly in Germany that the police are turning against the far-left interior minister, Nancy Faeser (SPD), who is responsible for security in Germany but appears to be focusing her efforts on fighting her political foe, the Alternative for Germany (AfD).

“It must not be the case that train stations become spaces of fear for women. Women must be able to travel safely in Germany. The risk of becoming a victim continues to increase every month. Interior Minister Nancy Faeser must finally wake up,” Heiko Teggatz, the federal chairman of the federal police union DPolG, told Bild newspaper.

This increase comes after an already sharp increase in 2022, which showed 24,800 violent crimes on trains and at stations, an increase of 7,000 violent crimes over 2021, according to Federal Police.

Nationwide crime wave fueled by mass immigration

Nationwide, the trend shows that crime is being fueled by mass immigration, with violent crimes rising everywhere — not just in train stations. There were 214,999 violent crime cases last year, reaching its highest level in 15 years and rising 8.6 percent compared to 2022. Knife attacks rose another 9.7 percent.

Notably, a record high number of foreigners were involved in crime, 41 percent, and it is important to note that many of the Germans listed as crime suspects have a migration background, but they are simply considered “German” in the reporting since they have obtained a German passport.

The soaring crime at train stations is resulting in serious physical and psychological harm for the country’s train workers, with Remix News reporting this week in a must-read piece on migrant violence on the German train network in Thuringia. In the article, the head of the train union, Steffi Recknagel, described harrowing stories of knife attacks, violence, and constant sexist insults against German train conductors and attendants. She blamed young migrant males for the incidents.

She warned that the situation on the train system is “sometimes life-threatening. Our people are afraid, very afraid. We have employees who say: If these groups are on the train, then I won’t check tickets. Then, they say they’ll stay at the front with the train driver or lock themselves in their cabin until they get to a safe station and they get out.”

Now, the German government is racing to naturalize as many foreigners as possible, not only to expand their voting bloc, but also to hide the soaring migrant crime plaguing Germany.

The threat is real.

For example, Berlin’s public prosecutor noted that three out of every four criminal migrant clan members in Berlin is actually a German citizen, which means every time these notorious criminals commit a crime, including murder, it is simply listed as a crime committed by “Germans.” Other nations such as Denmark do not hide these statistics, and in that country, the data shows that Danish citizens with a migration background actually feature even higher rates of violent crime than first-generation migrants.

While the German authorities focus on the “fight against the right,” actual day-to-day crime in Germany is soaring in terms of murder, rape, and assaults. The left is obsessed with taking down the Alternative for Germany (AfD), and state security services are dedicating copious resources to surveil and prosecute the party, in large part due to its stringent opposition to mass immigration.

These prosecutions and court cases, and round-the-clock media campaigns against the AfD, are indeed bearing fruit, with the party’s polling taking a serious hit over the last six months, dropping from a high of 23-24 percent to 17 percent. Nevertheless, the party remains set to become the second-largest party in the country.

In addition, the German state is paying tens of billions for its swelling immigration population, which is putting extreme burdens on the budget for nearly all services, including funding for the police.

The German police union is demanding increases in police forces and other civil servants, but the political establishment claims the money is not there.

“It is also because we are still missing thousands of civil servants who were promised to us years ago. And the citizens, the travelers at the train stations, have to pay for it now,” said Heiko Teggatz.
