4.6.4.1 Persons convicted for: Acts leading to death or intending to cause death (ICCS 01)
Total number of persons found guilty of “acts leading to death or intending to cause death” by any legal body authorized to pronounce a conviction under national criminal law, whether or not the conviction was later upheld. Persons receiving a sentence after plea-bargaining, or in an abbreviated court procedure, should be counted as persons convicted. It should also include persons convicted of serious special law offences but exclude persons convicted of minor road traffic offences, misdemeanours and other petty offences. “Acts leading to death or intending to cause death” are those criminal offences defined in Section 01 of the International Classification of Crime for Statistical Purposes (ICCS), UNODC, Mar 2015, pp.33-36. They include: Intentional homicide (0101), Attempted Intentional homicide (0102), Non-intentional homicide (0103), Assisting or instigating suicide (0104); Euthanasia (0105), Ilegal feticide (0106), Unlawful killing associated with armed conflict (0107), Other acts leading to death or intending to cause death (0109), and subcategories of these, as listed on p. 23 of the ICCS.
