The Rosenheim federal police caught a suspected rapist on the Inntalautobahn (A93) as part of border controls.
Federal Police
The federal police in Munich arrested a suspected multiple rapist. His fingerprints revealed his identity.
The federal police arrested a suspected rapist during border controls on Sunday evening. In 2020, the Düsseldorf Regional Court ordered the 30-year-old Iraqi to be held in custody. According to a report by the federal police, he is said to have sexually assaulted or raped three women. The man was housed in an asylum in North Rhine-Westphalia at the time.
Fled to Italy
The wanted Iraqi was arrested on the A93 near Kiefersfelden. Officers verified the man's identity using his fingerprints. The man apparently fled to Italy beforehand and stayed there under several names. Federal police officers now checked the man in a coach registered in Italy in the direction of Munich.
Fingerprints give the man away
The man identified himself with an Italian residence permit. He only took a photo of his Iraqi passport with his smartphone, which he showed to the control officers. It turned out that the photographed passport had expired a long time ago. With the help of his fingerprints, the federal police found out that he was wanted several times in Germany under different personal details. According to the arrest warrant, there was a risk of absconding.
Also imprisonment for assault
It also turned out that the wanted Iraqi had evaded the intended execution of the sentence in another case. "Based on a judgment by the Düsseldorf district court in 2020, he has to serve a 90-day prison sentence for dangerous bodily harm," says the police report. In the same year, the road traffic office in Düsseldorf ordered that the man's driver's license should be confiscated because of a driving ban that had been imposed. The Rosenheim federal police officers found the driver's license and secured it. They reported the Iraqi because of his illegal attempt to enter the country and brought him before the district court in Rosenheim on Monday. There the pre-trial detention of the alleged rapist was confirmed. He is now in the prison in Traunstein.

Portugal’s criminal investigation police agency detained 210 people for underage sex crimes in 2022, reaching a figure not seen in the past five years, the criminal investigation coordinator for these cases in Lisbon and Tagus Valley told Lusa on Sunday.
In an interview with Lusa, José Matos, the criminal investigation coordinator on these cases, noted that the data for 2022 is not yet consolidated but highlighted the proportion of sexual crimes against children in overall sexual crimes.
“The PJ made 210 arrests last year about sexual crimes perpetrated against children, out of a total of 276 [for sexual crimes]. This number also reflects the ratio of the totality of sexual crimes perpetrated against children and against adults: about 70% are always sexual crimes perpetrated against children or young people up to 18 years old,” he says.
Most criminal investigations focus on the sexual abuse of children, followed by the crimes of rape (both against adults and those under 18), child pornography and sexual abuse of a person incapable of resisting, said Matos.
“In 2022, we had 2,410 open cases against children from 3,230 [cases for] sexual crimes. In other words, of these 3,230, more than 2,400 are against children”, he emphasised, in a statistic distributed between 75% face-to-face crimes and 25% online crimes, adding: “In terms of victims, we have an approximate number at the end of 2022 – in total terms – of more than 3,400 victims”.
And the number of suspects arrested at 210. There seems to be a significant imbalance there. Surely, you can do better, Portugal.
