One in Nine Women Has been Raped


A report of the Rutgers Nisso Group has reported that one in nine Dutch women has been raped at least once. In half of the cases the attacker is known – partners, neighbors or family members. Another 17% has been confronted with an attempt to rape. Four percent of girls under the age of 16 have been victims of group rape. Only 8% of the victims complain to the police.
