FOCUS-Online article:
“SEXUALISED VIOLENCE: THE VIEW OF LAWYERS AND VICTIM ORGANISATIONS”
Editor’s note
Thanks to a petition, we have been made aware that the text published here casts sexualised violence in a false light. We have amended the text and added comments, as it unfairly portrayed sexualised violence from one angle. The view presented in the original version was not that of our editorial staff and – inadequately flagged – only reflected the opinions of the cited defence lawyers. We therefore contacted the initiators of the petition. They included Nina Fuchs, CEO of “KO – Kein Opfer e.V”. This non-profit organisation stands up for the rights of victims of sexualised violence. Its views, which clearly reflect the perspectives of victims of sexualised violence, have been added to the article and appear in italics. We apologise sincerely to all readers who, for understandable reasons, felt attacked by the one-sided arguments in the original text. We have now given appropriate space to the topic of sexualised violence:
