Crime statistics refer to systematic, quantitative results about crime, as opposed to crime news or anecdotes. Notably, crime statistics can be the result of two rather different processes:
41-693: National Crime Records Bureau ( NCRB ) is an Indian government agency responsible for collecting and analyzing crime data as defined by the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Special and Local Laws (SLL). NCRB is headquartered in New Delhi and is part of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) under the Government of India . Vivek Gogia (IPS) is the current Director of the National Crime Record Bureau. NCRB
82-537: A 'de facto' standard for defining common crimes. Complete list of countries participating and the 11 defined crimes can be found at the project web site. In March 2015 the UNODC published the first version of the "International Classification of Crime for Statistical Purposes" (ICCS). According to the UNODC, there have been more than three million homicides in Africa since the year 2000. More complex measures involve measuring
123-780: A case of M/s National Enterprises and Group and recovered some documents.. The documents consisted of 1536 pages with eight to twelve thumb prints on each page (i.e. over 12000 prints in total). After examination of the document, CFPB experts were able to establish that all the prints were given by 8 to 10 fingers only indicating fraudulent payment of approximately 2.25 crores. Approximately 40% finger impressions were faint, blurred or partial. 7. A total of fifty five (55) fingerprint slips for establishing identity were received in FACTS (CFPB-AFIS) from Uttarakhand State police Department. The slips carried fingerprints of Unidentified Dead Bodies (UDBs). Majority of fingerprints were faint, smudged, or partial. All
164-399: A criminal record. While most jurisdictions could probably agree about what constitutes a murder , what constitutes a homicide may be more problematic, while a crime against the person could vary widely. Legislation differences often means the ingredients of offences vary between jurisdictions. The International Crime victims Survey has been done in over 70 countries to date and has been
205-452: A very limited range of offences. However, many jurisdictions accept the following: Offending that is a breach of the law but for which no punishment exists is often not counted. For example: Suicide, which is technically illegal in most countries, may not be counted as a crime, although attempted suicide and assisting suicide are. Also traffic offending and other minor offending that might be dealt with by using fines rather than imprisonment,
246-565: A very pertinent fact that over 74% of rape cases and 80% dowry cases filed in India, end in acquittal which suggest there is a growing trend of false cases being filed by women against men to meet their needs and use the Gender Biased Laws to their favor. Interpreting the statistics and also drawing inferences from their own lessons, Delhi High Court pointed out that there is an alarming rise in false rape cases in India,nd this must be checked at

The World's First Finger Print Bureau was set up in Calcutta in 1897. A CFPB
410-488: Is not perceived as a crime by the officer concerned. For example, when faced with a domestic violence dispute between a couple, a law enforcement officer may decide it is far less trouble to arrest the male party to the dispute, because the female may have children to care for, despite both parties being equally culpable for the dispute. This sort of pragmatic decisionmaking asked if they are victims of crime, without needing to provide any supporting evidence. In these surveys it
451-410: Is often not counted as crime . However separate statistics may be kept for this sort of offending. Because of the difficulties in quantifying how much crime actually occurs, researchers generally take two approaches to gathering statistics about crime. However, as officers can only record crime that comes to their attention and might not record a matter as a crime if the matter is considered minor and
SECTION 10
#1732854719311492-403: Is the participant's perception, or opinion, that a crime occurred, or even their understanding about what constitutes a crime that is being measured. As a consequence differing methodologies may make comparisons with other surveys difficult. One way in which, while other types of crime are under reported. These surveys also give insights as to why crime is reported, or not. The surveys show that
533-774: The Uniform Crime Reports from the FBI and the National Crime Victimization Survey from the Bureau of Justice Statistics. However, the U.S. has no comprehensive infrastructure to monitor crime trends and report the information to related parties such as law enforcement. Research using a series of victim surveys in 18 countries of the European Union , funded by the European Commission , has reported (2005) that

The All India Conference of Directors of Finger Print Bureau of States/UTs, is an annual conference as mandated by the MHA. It is being held annually by CFPB (NCRB) to deliberate on recent trends in the field of finger print science and other priority issues concerning finger print fraternity of the nation. This conference
615-703: The Citizen Portals of CCTNS. ICJS has been mandated for integrating CCTNS (Police) with e-Courts, e-prisons, Forensics, Finger Print Bureaux and Prosecution, which are the key components of the Criminal Justice System. Implementation of ICJS will ensure quick data transfer among different pillars of criminal justice system. The main objective of the Crime Records Branch is to collect, collate, and disseminate information on Crime, Criminals, Persons, and Property for matching purposes. The branch utilizes
656-556: The Finger Print Bureau of various States/Union Territories and also from the police stations.

738-493: The United Kingdom sees over one third of reported violent crimes being not recorded by the police. Because laws and practices vary between jurisdictions, comparing crime statistics between and even within countries can be difficult: typically only violent deaths (homicide or manslaughter) can reliably be compared, due to consistent and high reporting and relative clear definition. The U.S. has two major data collection programs,
779-495: The administrative control of NCRB. The CFPB has pioneered the automation of fingerprints through its Automated Finger Print Identification System (AFIS) in 1992. This software was jointly developed by NCRB and CMC Ltd. and named as "Fingerprint Analysis & Criminal Tracing System" (FACTS). Currently CFPB is maintaining 10,93,408 Ten Digit Finger Print Record slips of convicted and arrested persons. These Finger Print Slips (Record) and Finger Print Slips (Search) are received from
820-897: The amount of crime that has not been reported to police. Such surveys are usually more reliable for assessing trends. However, they also have their limitations and generally don't procure statistics useful for local crime prevention, often ignore offenses against children and do not count offenders brought before the criminal justice system. Law enforcement agencies in some countries offer compilations of statistics for various types of crime. Two major methods for collecting crime data are law enforcement reports, which only reflect crimes that are reported, recorded, and not subsequently canceled; and victim study (victimization statistical surveys ), which rely on individual memory and honesty. For less frequent crimes such as intentional homicide and armed robbery, reported incidents are generally more reliable, but suffer from under-recording; for example, no criming in

Crime statistics However, in their research, criminologists often draw on official figures as well. There are several methods for the measuring of crime. Public surveys are occasionally conducted to estimate
943-555: The end of the century they had declined by 40%. However, the European research suggests that "increased use of crime prevention measures may indeed be the common factor behind the near universal decrease in overall levels of crime in the Western world", since decreases have been most pronounced in property crime and less so, if at all, in contact crimes. Relatively few standards exist and none that permit international comparability beyond

1107-457: The level of crime in Europe has fallen back to the levels of 1990, and notes that levels of common crime have shown declining trends in the U.S., Canada, Australia and other industrialized countries as well. The European researchers say a general consensus identifies demographic change as the leading cause for this international trend. Although homicide and robbery rates rose in the U.S. in the 1980s, by
1148-421: The need to make an insurance claim, seek medical assistance, and the seriousness of an offence tend to increase the level of reporting, while the inconvenience of reporting, the involvement of intimate partners and the nature of the offending tend to decrease reporting. This allows degrees of confidence to be assigned to various crime statistics. For example: Motor vehicle thefts are generally well reported because
