Consular Directorate's case management system records British nationals detained overseas, where cases have been reported to us. British national detainees are divided into two categories – those who have been sentenced and those who are yet to be sentenced. It does not have a breakdown of the latter and we cannot provide numbers of those who are yet to be charged.
