<p>Adolescents' criminal activity, particularly property and violent offenses, is on the rise in Bangladesh, as indicated by recent police records. This study aims to address the gap in data by examining the prevalence of self-reported violent and property offenses among Bangladeshi adolescents. Using a cross-sectional design, the study surveyed 2,832 adolescents aged 13 to 19, selected through simple random sampling across Bangladesh. The survey included 18 sociodemographic questions, two items assessing institutional trust, six items measuring property crime, and eight items evaluating violent crime. Data analysis incorporated descriptive statistics, Chi-square tests, and multiple logistic regression to identify significant factors and to determine their relationships. The findings revealed that approximately 17.4% of adolescents reported involvement in property crimes, while 30.3% reported involvement in violent crime, with significant regional differences. Several significant risk factors for adolescent violent and property crime were identified, with gang involvement and experiencing harassment or bullying being the strongest predictors of both crime types. Other factors included male gender, urban residency, smoking habits, poor parental bonding, political involvement, having friends with a history of crime punishment, and, surprisingly, having family members in the police force. On the other hand, protective factors significantly associated with lower crime involvement include living with relatives or friends and higher trust in the police and the judiciary. These findings highlight the complex interplay of demographic vulnerabilities, social environment, and individual factors in shaping adolescent criminal behavior, emphasizing the urgent need for targeted interventions to reduce adolescent crime.</p>
