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disposed of as withdrawn, eg where the victim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withdrawn, as in some of these cases it could be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.
