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

Dear Hong Kong Police Force Sha Tin 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 your total arrest statistics 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
