Section 3  Theft

  Table 1-4-3-1 shows the number of reported cases, crime rate, and clearance rate for theft in each country over the five years from 2003 to 2007 (See Appendices 1-8 and 1-9).
  In 2007 the number of reported cases decreased and the crime rate declined from the previous year in each country. The clearance rate rose from the previous year in Japan, France, the U.K. and the U.S.A.
  Although not a completely accurate comparison, as far as a statistical data comparison is concerned, the crime rate for theft was lower in Japan than in the above mentioned four countries in the years concerned.
