It looks at the differences in the number of men and women represented in the criminal justice statistics. The first section presents global crime statistics based on the UN-CTS data. These global rates are shown by different regions and income levels, and where possible, ten-year trends are also presented from 2004 to 2013. The second section focuses on selected crime categories in Europe, using data from the European Sourcebooks of Crime and Criminal Justice Statistics (ESB). Based on the two data sources, we present sex-disaggregated rates for the following crime categories; total crime, homicide, rape offences, assault, theft, and fraud. Furthermore, the report includes information on the number of men and women among the police staff globally, and also explores possibilities of using indicators to study attrition, i.e., the trickling out of cases from the criminal justice process.
