[1] Crimes are registered by the police according to the evidence contained in the docket. The crime of which the perpetrator may be found guilty of may differ from the former as a result of legal and technical aspects that may arose during the trail.

[2] Some of the dockets disposed of as withdrawn, eg where the victim died of natural causes, committed suicide, drowned or died as result of an accident were supposed to be disposed of as unfounded. A substantial number of cases where inquest dockets were opened were also erroneously disposed of as withdrawn, as in some of these cases it could be found during the inquest that the offenders were unknown and have to be dispose of as undetected.
