Released Under Investigation and Bail statistics by month from June 2018
Dear Durham Constabulary,
I am writing to make a request for all the information to which I am entitled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
James Stott made a similar request in 2020 which may be relevant to forces who replied with information. This request, however, extends and expands beyond that request.
-Released under investigation
1. How many people did your force release ‘under investigation’ each month from June 2018 up to and including August 2021?
2. For request 1, please may this be split by crime sub groups for all crime types (see HO Offence Classification index. For example, violence against the person offences are split into homicides, violence with injury, violence without injury, stalking and harassment, death or serious injury caused by unlawful driving)?
3. For request 1, for each month, please can you state the average number of days these individuals were under investigation (prior to being charged or any other outcome was given)?
-Pre-charge bail
4. How many people did your force release on pre-charge bail each month from June 2018 up to and including August 2021?
5. For request 4, for each month, please may this be split by crime sub groups for all crime types (see HO Offence Classification index. For example, violence against the person offences are split into homicides, violence with injury, violence without injury, stalking and harassment, death or serious injury caused by unlawful driving)?
6. For request 4, for each month, please can you state the average number of days these individuals were placed on pre-charge bail (prior to being charged or any other outcome was given)?
Yours faithfully,
John Milik
Due to the Coronavirus/COVID 19 pandemic and the changing circumstances
for all, the Unit must prioritise essential safeguarding work for the
health and social care sector, and also for the Family Court. Delays in
other areas are likely to occur and may fall outside any statutory or
other expected timescales. We apologise for any inconvenience this may
cause, we will of course endeavour to process your request as soon as
practicable. If your request is not urgent or can be retracted at any
stage, please let us know as soon as possible via our published email
addresses. At the current time our position remains that the majority of
staff are working from home and we will only have very limited numbers of
staff in the Office occasionally and we will therefore not be able to
regularly collect correspondence sent via post. We thank you for your
understanding,
