The constant proportion of violent crime in overall crime does not mean there has been a reduction in the number of such crimes ascertained. A negative trend is the steady increase in the number of violent crimes ascertained, the highest since 1990 . The most serious violent crime is murder , with an increase of 35 crimes on 1993. Of murders cleared up, murders from personal disputes and robbery with murder dominate, with qualified preparation, brutality and hired assassinations ascertained. Moral crime remains latent, despite a rise in the number of crimes of soliciting, women trafficking and sexual abuse ascertained.
Prostitution remains a problem and is directly related to the offence of soliciting.
The increase in the number of cases of sexual abuse and maltreatment of wards ascertained, where detection is very difficult and crimes tend to be reported only exceptionally, is influenced by the greater degree to which the public is informed and to increasing confidence in the work of the police. A serious problem is the distribution of child pornography, especially on the Internet. There is no doubt that crime against children and young people is one of the most serious problems. The consequences for injured parties are very serious and not infrequently irreparable. In crimes against property , the number of common thefts is the highest since 1990.
