    An ascertained crime is an event, which after the completion of preparatory proceedings was confirmed as a crime. In connection with the Criminal Code of 1997 coming into force on 1 September 1998 (the Law dated 6 June 1997, Journal of Laws No. 88, item 553, with later amendments) crime is a felony or misdemeanour prosecuted upon by public accusation or private accusation by public prosecutor, moreover every revenue-related misdemeanour, the character of which was confirmed as a crime as a result of preparatory proceedings. Information regarding ascertained crimes and rates of detectability of delinquents in ascertained crimes has been prepared on the basis of the police statistics, supplemented with information on investigations conducted by the public prosecutors` offices and on juvenile proceedings in family courts. Data on ascertained crimes have been prepared in accordance with the classification of the Criminal Code of 1997, the Treasury Penal Code (the Law dated 10 September 1999, Journal of Laws No. 83, item 930) or other specific laws. The rate of detectability of delinquents is the relation of the number of detected crimes in a given year (including those detected after resumption following discontinuance) to the total number of crimes ascertained in a given year, plus the number of crimes recorded in commenced proceedings and discontinued in previous years due to undetected delinquents. Since 2013, all data are calculated excluding statistical information on their own investigations of prosecutor and investigations assigned to conduct the authorized agencies other than the police, as well as with limited information about the activities of juvenile offenses and therefore are not fully comparable with the rates from previous years.

    Data from the Police Headquarters. An ascertained crime is an event, which after the completion of preparatory proceedings was confirmed as a crime. Crime - in connection with the Criminal Code of 1997 - is a felony or misdemeanour prosecuted upon by public accusation or private accusation, in connection with the Penal Fiscal Code - is a fiscal offence. The rate of detectability of delinquents is the relation of the number of detected crimes in a given year (including those detected after resumption following discontinuance) to the total number of crimes ascertained in a given year, plus the number of crimes recorded in commenced proceedings and discontinued in previous years due to undetected delinquents.In accordance with Decision No. 314 of the Chief of Police of 7 October 2024 regarding the establishment of a team to develop proposals for amending groups of legal acts used in the Analytical System and the concept of assigning legal classifications within the Police organization, new groups of legal classifications as well as new Temida article details have been created, effective from 1 January 2025. When comparing groups of legal classifications, it should be noted that the content of the newly created groups differs from the groups of legal classifications that were in force until 31 December 2024 (the exception being the Full Catalogue of Offences, which in both cases contains all criminal provisions). This results, among other things, from the updating of many articles with new Temida details, the reallocation of classifications between groups, as well as the creation of a previously non-existent group “Cybercrime”. Since January of this year, the following groups have been in place: Criminal, Commercial, Corruption, Traffic, Cybercrime, Other offences, Violence and assault, Property theft, Automobile theft and burglary, Burglary, Robbery, Theft and assault and criminal coercion, Homicide, Rape, and the Act on Counteracting Drug Addiction. Groups: “Criminal”, “Commercial”, “Corruption”, “Traffic”, “Cybercrime” and “Others” constitute the sum of the “Full Catalogue of Offences”.
