One third of 1953 born Brit men convicted of a criminal offence

London, July 16 (ANI): A third of all Brit men born in 1953 have been convicted of a criminal offence, revealed Ministry of Justice.

More than a half of those were found guilty of one offence while a fifth have more than five convictions.

Fewer than one in 10 women born in the same year have a criminal conviction, reports the Daily Express.

Overall almost a quarter of all men and about one in 20 women have a criminal record.

But the figures do not give the whole picture, as offenders given cautions or warnings are not counted. (ANI)
