Description

This table contains data on registered suspects of a crime recorded in the reporting year, distinguished by crime group, age, gender and municipality of residence. The sex, age and place of residence of a suspect is determined on the last Friday of September of the year under review. This data comes from the Basic Registration Persons (BRP) or, if the person is not registered in the BRP, from the registration system of the police. The table shows the number of suspects of crime in absolute and relative figures. The relative figure is calculated per 10000 persons of the selected population. Individuals who do not appear in the Basic Registration Persons (BRP) often lack personal data. These individuals are counted in the absolute figures, but not in the relatives. Because the number of suspects per type of crime is presented per year, the number of suspects per type of crime is increased to more than the total number of unique suspects. A person who has been registered more than once within a reporting year is counted only once in the total number of suspects. In addition, for each offence he is suspected of, he is counted once in the main group of offences. Example: a suspect of 10 burglaries and 2 violent crimes is counted once in Total number of suspects, 1 in Power Offences and 1 in Violence Offences. Data available from: 2010 Status of the figures: The figures up to 2020 are final. The figures for 2021 and 2022 are provisional. Preliminary figures give an underestimation of the final number of suspects. The preliminary number of suspects in the most recent year is a few percent lower than the final number. Changes as of 16 February 2024: None, this is a new table. When new figures will be available: Figures on registered suspects 2023 will be available in March 2024.
