SNP Depute Justice Spokesperson, Stewart Stevenson MSP, today (Sunday) responded to figures released to the Sunday Times regarding clear up rates for police forces in Scotland.
Mr Stevenson said:
"It is clear to see that the clear up rates differ in extremes depending
on the differing forces in Scotland. For violent crimes, Central police have a 95 % clear up rate whereas Strathclyde have cleared only 48%.
"This postcode lottery for justice is unacceptable and is another example
of the Labour-Liberal crime policy in meltdown.
"An SNP-led government will build confidence in Scotland's law-enforcement system by supporting police chiefs', not bullying them into using ill-thought out legislation which seeks headlines rather than results."
