 there are 000 cases of status-holders suspected of serious crimes, like armed robbery and sex offences. Furthermore, 000 are repeat offenders, while 0000 of them are suspected of committing a single offence.  What makes this worse, is that large groups of asylum seekers seem to be part of organised crime groups, that trek from country to country, stealing on order. One case in the files describes groups of ‘refugees' leaving their accommodations at 00:00 every night, presumably for criminal activities. Police describe finding lists with orders for things to steal. Over the first nine months of 0000, police reported 000 cases of theft, and 000 cases of crimes against personal integrity, ranging from spitting in people's faces and insults to sexual assault and rape from this particular group of asylum seekers alone. That is disregarding the 000 incidents every month that require police attention, without leading to charges being made.  The Public Prosecutor's Office (OM) often decides not to prosecute, so the deportation process isn't interfered with by a court-case. But with asylum seekers not getting deported, or only getting deported after a considerable period of time, this means that crimes go unpunished, while the criminal is allowed to stay.
