Sex Crime Police Under Pressure

 

Jan Struijs, Chairman of the Dutch Police Union (NPB), says that the sex crime police division is under great pressure.  All research shows that there is insufficient information about sexual violence and intimidation in Dutch society.  The pressure on the police has continually increased in this area.  The issues concerned are child pornography, rape, human trafficking and incest.  While monitors indicate that there are more reports on cases, there is no increase in the number of complaints to the police.  He concluded that sexual violence is a problem from which we only see the tip of the iceberg.
