The latest figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) released on Thursday found that over 80% of all victims of a serious sexual assault did not tell the authorities, with a quarter claiming they did not think they would be believed if they did.
According to the analysis there were 773,000 adults aged 16 to 74 years old who were victims of sexual assault or attempted sexual assault for the year ending March 2020, with four times as many female victims
Interestingly
Using data from the annual Crime Survey and Home Office figures on police reported crime, the ONS study found that only 16% of female rape victims report the crimes to the police, compared to 19% of male victims.
