Reply:
The South African Police Service, through the Division: Detective Service, has implemented the resolution regarding the specific and separate reporting of main sexual crime statistics as contained in the report of the United National Human Rights Committee (CCPR/C/ZAF/1).
The statistics on sexual crimes are currently recorded on the CAS/ICDMS. The Division Detective Services also reports on this crime in its quarterly performance reporting mechanism.
