1 The statistics dealing with recorded crime and court proceedings are not directly comparable as a person may be proceeded against for more than one crime involving more than one victim and there is a possiblity that the crime recorded by the police will be altered in the course of the judicial proceedings. Also a crime may be recorded by the police in one year and proceedings taken in a subsequent year.
2 Where these crimes were the main offence involved.
