Do they include the people who have committed traffic violations and got a speeding or a parking ticket, or similar?

Mind, if the Police ever properly cracked down on parking and other traffic offences, the conviction rate would probbaly double!

Again, keep in mind that the list displayed indicates convictions per capita. Click on and choose, from the drop down menu, other lists and you will see the U.S. on them.

Thanks, Filitsa.

I knew it was too good to be true for the USA not to make the list in some form or the other.! :wink:

Click onto 'Tourism arrivals from country of usual residence' and it gives the falling figures of British Tourists in the last 10 years and the actual figures from 1980 to last year. Brit arrivals are now near what they were in 1993.
It shows all nationalities that have or are visiting Cyprus on holiday and may be a reason in higher crime figures imo :roll:



I agree that it may be the increase of several nationalitlies rather than just the poor Brits :(

Cyprus has her share of 'illegals' too - another factor maybe?

Ok so lets blame other nationalities who are in our countries for crime on our turf :shock:
You are so bloody narrow minded
If fact is put in front of you, except it without pointing your finger at certain nationalities

Nationmaster, is NOT “facts” but an open source load of rubbish that failed to reach Wiki popularity.

Perhaps, had they scrutinized a bit what’s being written they wouldn’t have been in this state!
