"Sexual violence against children continues to rise
in Mon State and Mon areas of southern
Burma...Since WCRP?s last report on sexual
violence against children was released in
March 2017, we have documented an
additional 14 cases of sexual violence
against children in Mon State. In May
2018,
Mawlamyine
Police
Station
released statistics
showing a 42% increase
in the number of cases they received
regarding
sexual
violence
against
children in Mon State.
Mon State police
received a total of 61 rape cases in 2017.
Forty-four out of these 61 cases were of
child rape.
This increase in reported rapes in Mon
State is part of a Burma-wide trend. In
February, the Ministry of Home Affairs
released crime statistics for 2017, which
showed that 1,405 rapes were reported
across Burma in 2017, including 508 rapes of adult women and 897 rapes of
children. In 2016, 1,100 sexual assault cases were recorded, 429 against adults and 671
against children. This represents a 27% increase in the total number of recorded
rapes, and a 33% increase in recorded child rapes..."
