The figures in the accompanying graphs represent crime ratios, i.e. the incidence of crime per 100 000 of the South African population. For the subcategories of aggravated robbery, raw figures are used .
Xenophobic outbursts only started on 11 May 2008 and had no effect on the crime statistics presented here.
