欧盟报告称立陶宛为"谋杀之都"
According to the European Union (EU)'s official statistics agency Eurostat Tuesday, the Baltic state of Lithuania saw an average 8.76 murders per 100,000 people every year from 2002 to 2008, making it the EU country with most murders and the EU's murder capital。
Another Baltic state Estonia recorded the second with 6.6 murders per 100,000 residents. Complete data was not available for the third Baltic state Latvia, but incomplete figures suggested a similar rate to that of Estonia。
The only other countries reporting more than two cases a year per 100,000 people were Finland, Bulgaria, Scotland, Romania, the Czech Republic and Ireland, while the lowest murder rates were observed in Austria, Slovenia and Germany, all of which had less than one homicide per 100,000 of population, Eurostat reported。
However, on a more positive note, Lithuania was also amongst the EU states that saw one of the largest drops in levels of violent crime during the same period。
据外媒12月1日报道,欧盟统计局周二称,从2002年到2008年,波罗的海国家立陶宛平均每10万人中每年就有8.76人遭到谋杀,位列欧盟之最,被称为欧盟的“谋杀之都”。
而另外一个波罗的海国家爱沙尼亚以每10万人中6.6人遭谋杀位居第二。同为波罗的海国家的拉脱维亚虽没有完整的数据记录,但不完全统计数字表明,其谋杀率和爱沙尼亚相近。
每10万人中每年上报2起以上谋杀案件的国家还有芬兰、保加利亚、苏格拉、罗马尼亚、捷克以及爱尔兰,而谋杀率最低的国家则为奥地利、斯洛文尼亚和德国,这三个国家每10万人中每年连一宗谋杀案都不到。
然而从积极方面来看,立陶宛也是欧盟国家中暴力犯罪率同期下降幅度最大的国家之一。
