You asked

Can you provide data relating to the ethnicity of murder victims, specifically of knife crimes in the last five years.

We said

Thank you for your enquiry.

We hold information on deaths in England and Wales based on the information collected through death registration, not on hospital admissions. You may be able to get information on hospital admissions due to knife wounds from NHS Digital.

The information we hold about deaths does not include the ethnicity of the deceased. Therefore, we do not have the information you requested.
