Note: The OCR source text for the statistical breakdowns within each offence category was severely fragmented and contained numerous recognition errors (including spurious Tibetan and Gujarati characters). The table structure above reflects the standard column headings for this series of Hong Kong Blue Book returns. The detailed per-offence figures could not be reliably reconstructed from the provided OCR snippet. The "Brought forward" and "Grand Total" rows show the aggregate figures as they appeared in the OCR output.
