There's reports coming in now from Sweden, Finland, Switzerland and Austria, about sexual assaults during New Year's eve.
The Helsinki police reports "having prevented a second Cologne". They claim to have had intel about mass sexual assaults being planned for New Year's Eve, and deployed reinforcements from other police districts in the country to Helsinki.
Despite their increased prescence, police recieved many complaints about sexual harrasment on a central square where about twenty thousand people had gathered to celebrate. More harrassment complaints came from the central station area, where apparently a group of 1000, mostly Iraqi refugees had gathered.
Three refugees have been arrested. The adjunct chief of police, Ilkka Koskimaki, told the French media that 'this is a completely new phenomena for Helsinki, we have never seen anything like this in previous years"
- heh, it's almost like an exact copy of what the cologne chief of police said -
One country nextdoor, In the Swedish city of Kalmar, at least 15 young women were sexually assaulted, has been announced by the Swedish police. The victims were surrounded by a large group of people on a busy square in Kalmar, and touched indecently. The police have found two suspects, both refugees, and are looking for more perpetrators.
And then there's the Swiss police, reporting that dozens of women have been robbed, and six of them also sexually harassed by "people with a dark skin".
Finally, the Austrian police reports that several women have filed similar complaints in Salzburg.
Police forces are now investigating if those mass assaults in the different cities / countries were a coordinated action.
