As many as 151 incidents of sexual assault have been reported in a small community of Lapland, Norway. The report has sent shock waves across the snow-nation. The Norway government launched an investigation after VG (Verdens Gang) newspaper published 11 testimonials of victims in 2016.
The testimonial included testimonials from 11 men and women who alleged that they have been sexually assaulted in Tysfjord. ‘The government officials found out that 151 people, including 4-year-old children and a 75-year-old woman, have been sexually assaulted. It is shocking to see such a huge number of sexual assaults taking place in such a small community which as a population of hardly 2,000’ said an official.
The officials have taken 92 suspects into custody, which included 3 women. Including three rapes on children, a total of 43 rapes have been reported in the 151 sexual assault cases.
This incident sparked nationwide protests against the offenders and the community leaders who compromised the safety of the children and women in the name of religious beliefs and mechanisms.
