In Russia, rape is a crime that carries a penalty of three to six years in most cases, but it is difficult to pursue and get a conviction. According to statistics from the Crisis Center for Women in St. Petersburg, up to 70% of women who have been raped go to the police, but only 10% of the accusations result in charges. As a result, it is estimated that only 1% of men who commit these acts receive criminal punishment.

So not only did the original article quote the wrong study, they also completely misread the content of the actual study.

@[email protected] you might want to edit the title of your post, because at this point this is basically misinformation.
