Seems like a really simple next step to determine what % of rapes were performed by foreign born. Stats you gave are so disconnected as to be worthless.
I might be stretching it a bit, but maybe the immigrants are unwillingly being used by the right-wing to expand, which probably does rape more people?
If that seemed too confusing: More immigrants = more right-wingers = more rapists
Violence starts in socially degraded contexts, no matter what kind of it. If we don't give immigrants an opportunity to integrate or at least become functional, they will turn violent. This also happens with nationals of course but it's not as likely
5% in Poland, 40% in Germany. However the moment they get citizenship in Germany they get classified as German suspects, and you get citizenship after 5 years of living there.
Source for those numbers?
Germany (English article citing German minister presenting the data; I don't speak German didn't check the raw source) https://www.dw.com/en/germany-sees-rise-in-sexual-violence-and-youth-offenses/a-72116932#%3A%7E%3Atext=How+do+Germany%27s+crime+figures%2C%2C+were+non-German+suspects.
Poland: article citing Interior minister: https://www.gazetaprawna.pl/wiadomosci/kraj/artykuly/9843984,ile-zabojstw-i-gwaltow-dokonuja-cudzoziemcy-w-polsce-sa-najnowsze-dan.html in Polish
Please note it's a bit higher than I wrote, its 5%. 2% was a decade ago.
