German police is hiding facts about migrant crime statistics “to preserve civil peaceâ€
By Emma R. 16 February 2019
The German newspaper Hannoversche Allgemeine recently raised the question if violent crime statistics are tweaked in the country.
A state police officer is quoted saying: “There is no lying, nothing is hushed, but things are deliberately left out.â€
“There are orders to use our latitude of interpretation to preserve civil peace.â€
The journalist Dieter Wonka met with the police officer, and now he knows specifically how the statistics are tweaked.
In a short video clip he states the following: “There is no written instruction to falsify the statistics. There are certain terms, for instance honour killings or sexual offenses, that if possible should not appear in reports.â€
“In the case these terms do appear in police reports, from what I have understood, the police chief will make a written note on the report which says: ‘Please review this’.â€
