Germany: 788 antisemitic crimes in 2013, 96% by right-wingers


Police recorded 788 antisemitic crimes in 2013, including 32 cases of physical assault and violence.

The breakdown:
Right wing: 753 crimes, of which 29 violent crimes
Immigrants: 16 crimes, of which 3 violent crimes
Left wing: 1 crime
Unregistered: 18 crimes

The figures come from monthly inquiries by the Bundestag's Vice President Petra Pau (Left Party), and her faction.

The numbers are expected to rise, as many crimes are not reported immediately.
