Method & notes
The legal stage matters. PulseKita keeps each stage separate and does not convert an investigation or charge into a claim of guilt.
METHOD & LIMITATIONSHow the numbers were calculated
PulseKita transcribes the published annual SPRM totals for kertas siasatan, tangkapan, pertuduhan and sabitan. The four values are annual activity totals, not a cohort funnel: a conviction recorded in one year may relate to an investigation or charge from an earlier year.
- Siasatan, tangkapan, pertuduhan and sabitan are stored as distinct legal statuses.
- An arrest is not a charge; a charge is not a conviction. PulseKita only labels a case as convicted when a source explicitly records a court conviction.
- Do not divide one stage by another to infer a prosecution or conviction rate from this chart because the annual totals are not necessarily the same cases.
- For 2024, the contemporaneous January 2025 SPRM statement reported 453 individuals charged; a later 2026 SPRM media summary reported 454 pertuduhan. This V1 preserves 453 and documents the discrepancy.
