So? Is there any difference?

Taken this from the Star.... what is the difference? We still live in fear.

Johor overall crime rate down, but rape cases up

KULAI: The crime rate in Johor has dipped by as many as 1,162 cases in the first six months, but the number of rape cases has increased instead.

State CID Chief Senior Asst Comm II Roslan Ahmad said the number of rape cases increased some 8% in the first six months of this year.

He noted that 90% of the cases involved underage girls having consensual sex with their partners.

"Violent rapes are not common in the state but most rapes are results of social ills," he said.

SAC II Roslan told a press conference here that parents should monitor their children closely to prevent social ills such as underaged sex from increasing.
