The recent rise in crime in London has happened alongside a decline in both personnel and funding for the London Metropolitan Police. Homicide offences accounted for 145 of these crimes in 2019/20, one of the worst years for homicides in London. Between 2015//20 the crime rate in the UK capital increased in every reporting year, with the sudden drop seen in the most recent reporting year likely due to the Coronavirus pandemic causing a sharp reduction in certain types of crime such as robbery and theft.Ĭompared with 2013/14 there were around 211 thousand more crimes in 2019/20, a total of just over 912 thousand offences overall.

Robbery rate in Delhi last year was 9.8 as against the all India rate of 2.3 and 6.3 by the next ranked state Maharashtra. Robberies, however, witnessed a substantial dip of 20% even though its rate remained the highest across India. The city also reported marginal increase in murders which went up 1.5% from 513 to 521.

In comparison, the rate was 17.8 across India and 12.6 in the second-ranked state, Uttar Pradesh. Yet, the scene in Delhi remains bleak when it comes to vehicle thefts since the rate of this particular crime was 231.8 last year. While 46,433 vehicle thefts were reported across Delhi in 2018, last year saw 46,215 such thefts. Vehicle thefts, which have tormented the national capital for long, witnessed a marginal dip of 0.46%.
