Freedom of Information request - Refugee crime statistics for Lantau District
|----------------|
| [ ] GR to file |
|----------------|

Dear Hong Kong Police Force Lantau District,

Can you please provide data on arrest statistics of refugees
(non-refoulement claimants). Specifically I would like the most complete
yearly statistics of refugee arrests from your district for every full year
you have data going back to 2005, plus total arrest statistics from your
district to put this information into context. If you have a breakdown of
prosecution and conviction rates that would be useful too. And a breakdown
on what the crimes were for - how many of the refugee arrests were for
immigration related offences, how many employment offences, and how many
for violent crimes.

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

Your application has been referred to me for a reply.  Regret to inform
you that our District do not have the data on whether an arrested person
is a non-refoulement claimant or not.  We are thus unable to provide you
with the requested statistics, please.  

Regards,
Philip WONG

Dear Hong Kong Police Force Lantau District,

Thanks for getting back to me. If you don't have statistics on
non-refoulement claimant arrests, do you have arrest figures for
recognicance or form 8 holders? I also asked for general arrest statistics,
so what are the total number of arrests for you district over each year
until 2005?

Yours faithfully,

Scott Edmunds
