A 12-year-old German girl is alleged to have been raped by a Syrian Muslim migrant in a Braunschweig swimming pool, but the police kept the case quiet for several weeks. Even worse, despite the disturbing nature of the crime, Christian Wolters, a spokesperson for the police, admitted that the rapist was allowed to walk free following his brief arrest without any additional security measures.

REMIX News Police and public prosecutors in Braunschweig are investigating a Syrian teen who allegedly raped a 12-year-old girl in a local swimming pool called the Wasserwelt (Water World). The 15-year-old foreigner first molested the child in the pool and then raped her in a changing room, reports the Braunschweiger Zeitung. The crime is said to have taken place on Aug. 10, at 5 p.m. but details are only being made public now, as the police kept mum about the case for three weeks.

The investigation was only confirmed after a reader contacted the regional newspaper, which then inquired with the authorities. According to the police, the incident had been kept quiet because the victim was still so young. (So, I guess this means that if children are raped, the public should NOT be concerned?)

“The further background, in particular the exact sequence of events, is the subject of the ongoing investigation. In particular, evidence is still being gathered. The investigation is still at a relatively early stage, even though the crime took place three weeks ago,” Christian Wolters, the spokesperson for the public prosecutor’s office told the newspaper.

“The girl is said to have been sexually harassed by the suspect while she was in the water,” said Wolters. Later, she was raped inside a dressing room.

As the Berliner Morgenpost reports, in order to meet the legal definition of rape, the perpetrator would have to have performed a “particularly degrading act, sexual intercourse or similar to sexual intercourse” on the girl, “which would involve penetrating the child’s body.”

However, no measures have been taken against the suspected Syrian child abuser. He has been assigned a lawyer and only his personal details were taken by officers. The youth welfare office did not take action nor was he given pre-trail detention.

Tobias Groß, managing director of Stadtbad Braunschweig Sport und Freizeit GmbH, which operates the Water World pool, said police quickly arrived after the incident, adding that they “will of course issue an indefinite ban on entry as soon as (they) have the relevant data.”

The conservative Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has also commented on the case, tying the rape of the girl to mass immigration. The police data shows there has been an explosion in sexual assaults tied to Germany’s rising foreign population, including gang rapes, which have reached a record high. Nearly 50 percent of all gang rapes are committed by foreigners.

🇩🇪🚨 Last year, police in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia arrested 155 suspects in connection with 209 cases of gang r*pe.

A total of 84 suspects were foreign nationals and 71 were German citizens.

“It has only now become known that a terrible crime took place in a Braunschweig swimming pool on August 10. A 15-year-old Syrian harassed a 12-year-old girl in the water and then raped her in a changing room. The police initially did not make the case public, citing the victim’s young age. And again the question arises: How much more suffering must befall innocent children before the CDU and the traffic light coalition finally put a stop to mass migration?” wrote the AfD in a statement.

“Against this background, after the AfD’s electoral successes in Thuringia and Saxony, there must also be a ‘blue miracle’ in Brandenburg so that more and more people do not fall victim to mass migration,” the party wrote.

Last year, Remix News reported that Berlin pool workers were “sick with stress’” over feces on the wall and constant sexual assaults from “Arab migrants and Chechens.” One German newspaper even tried to explain away the exploding crime and violence at swimming pools due to “rising French fry prices.” That same year, a Syrian migrant was arrested for sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl. In total, seven girls were sexually assaulted on one day at the same pool. In 2002, the head of the German swimming association warned that families with children shouldn’t visit outdoor pools due to violence and sexual attacks.

German swimming pools in “trouble spots” now feature a heavy police presence and security checks, turning the idyllic swimming pool experience into a quasi-police state.
