Crimes against the Person: Convictions
(asked on 7th December 2022) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what estimate he has made of the number of people found guilty of the abduction, rape and murder of a stranger in the last five years.
This question was answered on 12th December 2022
The Ministry of Justice publishes information on the number of defendants convicted for abduction, rape and murder offences in the last five years in the Outcomes by Offence data tool: June 2022.
However, the relationship between defendant and victim is not held centrally in the Court Proceedings database. This information may be held on court records but to examine individual court records would be of disproportionate costs.
