A harassment incident has been reported in downtown Frankfurt, where a Japanese woman was approached by a suspicious woman who poured an unknown liquid on her.
The embassy has already reported the situation to local authorities and requested appropriate measures.
Although the connection to this recent incident is unclear, similar cases of harassment have occurred since 2022-2023, where suspicious women targeted Asian residents with racist comments and splashed liquids on them. In some instances, the situation escalated to physical assaults, including kicking.
Safety Recommendations:
-
In case of encountering a dangerous situation, prioritize your safety by leaving the area as soon as possible.
-
If possible, immediately report the incident to the police. Collecting evidence can be helpful for the arrest of the perpetrator.
-
Avoid actions that could be interpreted as provocative, such as filming the incident directly. This can escalate the situation and increase the risk of further harm.
