Consideration of crime trends in India noted an increase in crime rates from 1957 to 1977 for all major offense categories. A number of reasons for this increase were offered, and the workshop suggested remedial measures. Japan's representative reported on a problem with accidents among seagoing vessels due to the congestion and diversification of sea traffic; problems of marine accident investigation were noted, and measures for prevention such accidents were recommended by workshop participants. Pakistan's representative reported that overall crime in Pakistan has shown a downward trend but that problems exist in dealing with new criminal techniques in the areas of smuggling and the use of forgery in swindling enterprises. Crime prevention strategies currently being used were briefly described. Bribery control in Japan was also discussed, particularly in the areas of environmental pollution and construction. Some techniques of bribery and problems of investigating bribery were listed, followed by remedial measures proposed by workshop participants. The Korean representative discussed the public prosecutor's power to direct criminal investigation in that country, and the Indonesian representative focused on the power of criminal investigation vested in the police. The representative from the Philippines reported that the sheer number of criminal cases entering the criminal justice system in that country produces overwhelming pressure on various agencies involved in preliminary investigations. Suggestions for relieving this pressure were offered by workshop participants.
