<No asylum seekers allowed in German city’s public pool after sexual assault reports
Reports of assaults in public swimming pools have emerged from multiple German cities, including Munich. (BigStock)
The western German city of Bornheim has banned male asylum seekers older than 18 from using the city's swimming pool. Officials said the decision was made after consecutive cases of sexual assaults at the city-run swimming pool.
The city's head of social affairs, Markus Schnapka, confirmed that decision, according to German media reports.
The city said that no one has been charged after the incidents that led to the ban, which will remain in place until "the message has come across," Schnapka was quoted as saying. There are about 800 refugees in Bornheim, a city of about 45,000 people.
The decision comes at a sensitive time: On New Year's Eve, dozens of men — some of them allegedly asylum seekers — robbed and assaulted an unknown number of women at the main train station in the German city of Cologne. Reports of similar, if smaller, assaults have emerged from across Europe.
Moreover, Sweden's police have recently been accused of trying to cover up incidents of sexual assault last year, also allegedly committed by asylum seekers...>
