Germany is experiencing a notable increase in crime rates, particularly in Bavaria, where police data reveals a record surge in migrant crime among the 266,390 suspects last year. The state's interior minister, Joachim Herrmann, attributes this rise to the growing migrant population, emphasizing that uncontrolled immigration is negatively impacting security. In response, Germany is tightening its immigration policies. Bavaria's crime statistics show that 39.6% of suspects were non-Germans, despite them comprising only 16% of the state's population. This over-representation by a factor of 2.5 in the crime stats has led to a 340% increase in arrests of migrants with criminal records. The situation is stirring concerns across the country, with violent incidents also surging in schools across multicultural regions.
