9 Underage Girls Sexually Abused by Syrians at Swimming Pool, Mayor Points to ‘Hot Weather’
30th June 2025
After underage girls were sexually assaulted in the Barbarossabad swimming pool in Gelnhausen, the CDU mayor of the area pointed out that “hot weather” makes tempers “fray.”
However, local Mayor Christian Litzinge (CDU) appeared to allude that the weather is at least partly to blame for the incident.
In a statement to Welt, he said: “Of course, it’s always high temperatures, and sometimes tempers are frayed.”
In a separate interview with Bild, he said, “We have zero tolerance for that.”
As Remix News previously reported, the first group of girls were groped and molested by the group of Syrians, but when they complained to a lifeguard, he took no action.
“Since we couldn’t see exactly what had happened, we sent the girls back into the water,” pool manager Nils Tischer explained to Hessischer Rundfunk.
It was only after more girls made a complaint from separate groups that the police were called.
