"In the last ten years, an average 230 people per year in the Netherlands have been victims of murder or manslaughter. In 2005 a total 198 people were killed, an average of four murders a week. This is the lowest number in the last ten years. Compared with 2004 - 223 victims – it is 10 percent less. Half of the victims were aged between 20 and 40 years, and seven out of ten were male. From the age of 70 onwards, the risk of being murdered starts to increase again."
