Definition

Sexual violence offences recorded by the police during the year per 100,000 inhabitants, including rape and sexual assault (ICCS 0301). Eurostat crime statistics.

Not comparable across countries: legal definitions, recording rules and reporting rates differ widely. Rises often follow changes in law or more victims reporting, not only more offences.
