Reports of German police show inconsistencies with naming nationalities

An evaluation of 700,000 police press reports by the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation (BR) and the North German Broadcasting Corporation (NDR) showed that the state police deal with the naming of the perpetrators' nationalities very differently.

As a result, nationality is given in only 5% of the reports, in the most frequent cases in the case of theft and the naming of refugees. This contradicts the police crime statistics, where Germans are mentioned five times more often.
