These numbers are close to 10% up from the previous years statistics showing that criminal prosecutions for tax related crimes are increasing. But then 4211 criminal investigations, out of 189 million tax returns filed where only 0.9% of those tax returns were subjected to an audit, is statistically a low figure (0.002% or 22 in a million).
