Newly published data shows that nearly 40 percent of the suspects arrested in connection with Berlin’s New Year’s Eve riots do not hold a German passport, a figure significantly exceeding the city’s 24-percent foreign population.

Moreover, a recently released list of their forenames suggests that the majority of those implicated have immigrant backgrounds, underscoring concerns that the official statistics may understate the role of foreigners by not distinguishing between naturalized and German-born citizens.

The Berlin Police have updated their figures on the New Year’s Eve unrest, reporting a revised injury list of 44 police officers and a total of 1,453 recorded crimes with 670 suspects identified.
