A new study from Swedish state-owned media found 58 percent of all convicted rapists were born in a foreign country and the same was true for 85 percent of “assault rapists.”
Sweden defines “assault rape” as cases where the perpetrator and victim are strangers.
Independent Swedish journalist Peter Imanuelsen reported on the study in English Wednesday on Twitter:
IT'S HERE! (thread)
We now have statistics of the ethnicity of rapists in Sweden after a new study done by Swedish State owned media, the first of it's kind since 2004.
– 58% of all rapists are born in a foreign country.
– 85% of assault rapists are born in a foreign country.— PeterSweden (@PeterSweden7) August 22, 2018
The last 5 years in Sweden 843 people have been convicted of rape or attempted rape.
– 427 of 843 people were born outside of Europe.
– 97 of 129 assault rapists were born outside of Europe.
– 70 of 94 gangrapists were born outside of Europe.— PeterSweden (@PeterSweden7) August 22, 2018
– Almost 40% of the convicts are from the Middle East or from Africa.
However, one thing that should be taken into consideration is the EXTREMELY low conviction rate for sexual crimes in Sweden…

There seems to be a very low conviction rate for rapes in Sweden. BRÅ got information from some victims anonoumysly which showed the following in the year 2016.
– 190 000 sexual crimes reported.
– 6 715 rapes reported.
– But ONLY 142 people were convicted in court.INSANE!

Jerzy Sarnecki is a proffessor in Criminology and he claims that Swedish media is now peddling "far-right conspiracy theories".
Jerzy works for the Swedish government crime statistics Bureau BRÅ.
He says the reason for the rapes are "socioeconomic factors".

Jerzy Sarnecki came to Sweden in 1969 from Poland after the Communist party became anti-semitic. He has then been working as an expert on crime in Sweden.https://t.co/Zlicin0qFT
