Dear Hong Kong Police Force Hong Kong Island Region,

Can you please provide data on arrest statistics of refugees
(non-refoulement claimants). Specifically I would like:

1. The most complete yearly statistics of refugee arrests from Kowloon
East Region for every full year you have data going back to 2005, plus
your total arrest statistics from the same time period to put that data
into into context. If you don't have data from non-refoulement claimants,
then Recognisance/Form 8 holder data will do.

2. From this data, if you have breakdowns on how many of the refugees were
arrested for immigration offences, employment offences, and violent
crimes, that will be helpful as well.

3.. If you have a breakdown of prosecution and conviction rates that would
be useful too.

4. On top of total numbers, if you have the nationalities of the refugees
arrested that information would be useful as well.

For all of this I’m happy to take digital files if that’s easier, but
please don’t send this information in tabular form in the email as I can’t
view it. Attaching a PDF, or emailing other files to me (I can provide an
email address ) would work best in this case.

Yours faithfully,

Scott Edmunds

Dear Edmunds,

The yearly statistics of refugee arrests and total arrest statistics for
the Region mentioned in Question 1 is "Hong Kong Island Region".   Please
let me know if my understanding is not correct.  Thanks.
