Crime Statistics and Law Enforcement

Coverage of Sri Lankan crime trends showing increases in grave crimes and declining police clearance rates. Reports analyze public safety metrics and police performance data.

Crime up, police clearance rates down—basically Sri Lanka's crime statistics found the one thing harder to catch than the actual criminals: themselves. Nothing says "we're on top of it" like publicly announcing you're worse at your job while hashtag-promoting the bad news like it's a limited-time offer.
