Швейцария

Швейцария регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти. Уголовный кодекс Швейцарии не содержит положений о преступлениях на почве ненависти (см. ссылку на соответствующее законодательство ниже), и преступления на почве ненависти рассматриваются в рамках антидискриминационных уголовных положений. Федеральная комиссия по борьбе с расизмом совместно с ассоциацией "humanrights.ch" участвует в работе Сети консультирования жертв расизма, которая публикует ежегодные аналитические отчеты о преступлениях на почве ненависти.

About 2014 Data

Figures consist predominantly of crimes of incitement to hatred and crimes involving discrimination. Only hate crimes committed in public are included in the number presented here.

Hate crime recorded by police

National developments

In addition to recording crimes falling under the Swiss Penal Code provision on discrimination (Art. 261bis StGB), which only covers hate crimes committed in public, Switzerland has also begun monitoring hate crimes that are not committed in public (e.g. racially motivated offences committed in private spaces). This recording is being piloted and is currently optional. Therefore, the data gathered cannot yet be used for hate crime reporting.

KEY OBSERVATION

ODIHR observes that Switzerland has not reported on hate crimes separately from cases of hate speech and/or discrimination.

INTERNATIONAL REPORTS

Racist and xenophobic hate crime, Anti-LGBTI hate crime

In its fifth report on Switzerland, the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) recommended that the Swiss authorities improve their system for recording and monitoring violent incidents in order to obtain more reliable statistics on the racist, homophobic or transphobic motivations of offences.

Racist and xenophobic hate crime

The UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) recommended the incorporation of a criminal code provision ensuring that racist motivation constitute an aggravating circumstance allowing for more severe punishment.
