A 29-year-old asylum seeker admitted to a forced sex act in which he forced an 83-year-old woman to allow him to masturbate on her, although he had previously claimed his penis was too small for him to have been able to commit the act.

The 29-year-old, along with his mother and sister, had been living in a home next to the 83-year-old German woman and had previously enjoyed a friendly relationship with her. On June 15th this year, the asylum seeker entered the elderly woman’s home, told her to sit on a chair in her bedroom, stood behind her and pleasured himself while physically pushing her forward, Augsburger Allgemeine reports.

The 83-year-old kept the incident to herself for some time until finally telling her son who reported the matter to the police.

Initially, the Syrian claimed he could not have committed the act claiming that his penis was too small and he was physically unable to have sex. A police official measured his member at between one-half to three-quarters of an inch in length. The asylum seeker told police he left Syria in part to see if German doctors could enlarge his penis.

The police also recovered DNA from the incident and were able to match it to that of the asylum seeker before he finally confessed to the act in court.

The judge on the case found the man guilty and sentenced him to two short years in prison, without the possibility of parole. The prosecutor had sought a marginally longer sentence of three years but the judge granted extra leniency as the confession allowed the frail and embarrassed 83-year-old not to take the stand as a witness.

Migrant sex crimes in Germany have been rapidly increasing since 2015. In Baden-Württemberg, the number of migrant sex attacks doubled from 2015 to 2016 and the number in Bavaria has increased by 91 per cent from 2016 to 2017.

Sex attacks have been commonly reported at music and folk festivals like the recent summer festival in Schorndorf in Baden-Württemberg this year, where migrants not only sexually harassed women but also participated in a riot.
