  • Unreported crimes: Crimes that are not reported to the police for various reasons
  • Personal reasons: Fear of reprisal, shame, and embarrassment can prevent someone from reporting a crime
  • Social and cultural reasons: Lack of awareness or knowledge about reporting a crime can contribute to it going unreported
  • Consequences: Unreported crimes contribute to the "dark figure of crime" and can lead to a lack of accountability
  • Addressing the issue: It's important to address personal, social, and cultural barriers to reporting crimes to ensure all crimes are reported and addressed
