| Resumen: |
ecently, UNODC launched the Global Study on Homicide 2013, which showed that almost half a million people (437,000) across the world lost their lives in 2012 as a result of intentional homicide. One of the findings of the study is the analysis of the criminal justice response to homicides, such as police clearance levels, and suspect and conviction rates. At the global level, the study found that police forces tend to respond promptly to homicide offences, and are able to identify and make arrests in over 60 per cent of homicide cases, thus allowing the case to be "cleared" and sent to prosecutors. |
