According to authorities, identifying the accused presents a significant challenge. Property involved in these crimes often has low value, so even if recovered, it does not greatly impact the total percentage. It is very difficult to recover money as criminals spend it and cases like breach of trust, cheating and forgery, where recovery is low it affects the exposure rate in property related issues. Furthermore, the report cited challenges in recovering money due to criminals spending it. Cases involving breach of trust, cheating, and forgery also face low recovery rates, subsequently impacting the exposure rate in property-related issues. The woefully inadequate detection of property offenses by unknown criminals is an important factor.
