2016–2025These are recorded suspects, not findings of guilt or convictions.
Definitions & limitations
People recorded as suspects in offences cleared by police or gendarmerie. Suspicion is not conviction. Counts may refer to offences committed earlier and the same person can appear in multiple categories or years. Suppressed homicide nationality cells in 2016 remain missing. These indicators are not an exhaustive, mutually exclusive all-crime total. Categories overlap and must not be added together. Nationality does not identify birthplace, naturalization or immigration status.
These data identify citizenship or nationality. They do not separately identify foreign-born people or naturalized citizens. Counts are not population rates, and changes can reflect reporting, enforcement or justice-system practices.
