Shock in Offenbach: Two sexual attacks on the bathing lake and in the city!

Schultheisweiher, Offenbach-Rumpenheim, Deutschland - In Offenbach there are always worrying incidents. On Saturday, October 14th, around 12:35 p.m., several incidents occurred at the Schultheisweiher in the Rumpenheim district that will make citizens on alert. According to RheinMainverlag.de, a 34-year-old man is accused of having carried out inappropriate sexual actions in himself in the nudist area. That was not well received and, in particular, put the women present in unrest.

The suspect followed another woman to the sanitary facilities, where he not only urinated, but also stood next to it and is said to have observed. Both women immediately informed the police, who quickly identified the man and found his personal details. The investigation into exhibitionist acts is underway. The police asks for further injured party or witnesses to report on 069/8098-1234.

a second incident

But that was not the only alarm ring in the region. Already on Friday, October 13th, around 8 a.m., a young person in Offenbach-Bieber was victim of sexual harassment by a around 70-year-old gray-haired man who was traveling with a walker. This is said to have touched the young person immorally on the hip and on the leg. His hanging urine bag was striking, which made the whole thing appear even more outrageous. Here, too, the criminal police are dependent on the help of the citizens and is looking for witnesses who can provide information on the identity of the man, also on 069/8098-1234, as presseportal.de.

These incidents throw a bright light on the subject of sexual violence, which is still often not perceived sufficiently in society. A report of the djb.de shows that over 90 % of the victims of sexual violence are female, while the perpetrators are mostly male. This violence takes on many forms, from sexual harassment to heavier attacks that violate the intimate sphere and massively impair the self -determination of those affected.

social perception and prevention

The social perception of sexual violence is criticized. There is a massive reform requirement, both in the legal handling and the protection of sexual self -determination. Initiatives should be taken here to raise awareness and create suitable protective devices. In it, experts see great need for action in order to better support those affected and prevent this form of violence.

The recent incidents in Offenbach are a sobering wake -up call for everyone. They remind us that sexualized violence is an omnipresent problem that must not be ignored. The police and various institutions are ready to draw attention to this problem and to develop solutions. Only through joint action can we hope to minimize such incidents in the future and to offer the victims the support they urgently need.
