Thanks for your enquiry.
Our publications and data concern crime as it is experienced by victims, or as it is recorded by the police. We do not generally produce statistics or details on the offender.
However, we have published some data on ethnicity of defendants and offenders of sexual offences for year ending December 2017 as part of the 2018 'Sexual offending: victimisation and the path through the criminal justice system' release within the Ministry of Justice appendix tables.
The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) are primarily responsible for data on offenders. They publish Statistics each quarter which may be of help to you. You may also want to have a look at the MoJ's outcomes by offence data tool: June 2023. It allows you to filter it by offence and ethnicity to find the convictions and sentenced numbers.
If you have any questions, the Ministry of Justice may be able to help you further and can be contacted at ESD@justice.gov.uk
We have a publication on Sexual offences prevalence and victim characteristics which might be of use. We also have a publication on the nature of violent crime: appendix tables where the focus is on violent crime prevalence and characteristics of victims (including a breakdown of ethnic groups and whether they were UK-born).
If you are interested in victims' characteristics, such as ethnic group, then we also have a publication on Crime in England and Wales: Annual Trend and Demographic Tables that includes breakdown of victims of violent crime by ethnic group.
Unfortunately, we do not hold data on whether the victims were citizens of asylum seekers broken down specifically by violent and sexual crimes.
