Documentation of statistics .. not applicable

Relation between the victim and suspect

Unlike in the 2017 statistics, it is now also taken into consideration whether the victim and suspect have a common child or whether they are cousins. The time series have been revised retrospectively in this respect. Starting from 2015, it has also been considered whether the victim and suspect have lived in the same dwelling in any month during the statistical reference year. Cohabiting couples have been formed of those living in the same dwelling if both are aged over 18, are of opposite sexes and their age difference is under 16 years

Offence heading

If the injured party is also the victim of an offence, a separate entry is made of this into the PATJA system. At the moment, it is obligatory to record victim data only in attempted homicides, assaults and other crimes against life or health, sexual offences, human trafficking offences and in some offences of Chapter 25 of the Criminal Code.

Wellbeing services county

The wellbeing services county in which area the offence was committed

Information

Offences known to the authorities (number)

A matter recorded in the police information system as an offence. The offence may have become known to the police, customs or border guard either as a report or in connection with another investigation. The offence is recorded in the statistics for the year in which it becomes known to the authorities. An offence refers to an act for which a punishment is decreed in legislation. The task of the police, customs and border guard is to investigate the offence, conduct a pre-trial investigation and transfer the solved offence to the prosecutor for consideration. In more lenient cases, the offence may be left unreported to the prosecutor on the grounds laid down in law. The statistical unit used is an offence. If several persons have taken part in the same offence together, the number of offences recorded is one. If several similar offences are committed at the same time, several of these offences can be recorded. The offence is recorded based on the municipality where the offence occurred. The offence may also have taken place abroad and a report of it is recorded if the police, customs or border guard have jurisdiction in the matter and the offence has concerned (as a suspect or victim) a Finnish citizen, a person permanently resident in Finland or a Finnish legal person.
